Enabling IPv6 multicast source port filtering

This feature enables the switch to discard all IPv6 multicast data packets and to accept IPv6 multicast protocol packets. You can enable this feature on ports that connect only to IPv6 multicast receivers.

You can enable multicast source port filtering for the specified ports in MLD-snooping view or for a port in interface view. For a port, the configuration in interface view has the same priority as the configuration in MLD-snooping view, and the most recent configuration takes effect.
