This feature is supported on all 7210 SAS platforms as described in this document, except those operating in access-uplink mode.
This feature (IGMPv3 snooping in R-VPLS) extends IGMP snooping to an R-VPLS service. On 7210 SAS, VPLS services that use MPLS uplinks (network mode) support IGMP snooping with IGMP v1 and v2 only. That is, IGMP v3 is not supported, which means that only Layer 2 multicast is supported. To support source-based IP multicast, support for IGMPv3 is needed. To provide source-based IP multicast, support for IGMP snooping v1, v2, and v3 is added to R-VPLS service. The IGMPv3 snooping in R-VPLS feature gives customers an option to use an R-VPLS service without a configured IP interface association to deliver IP multicast traffic in access Layer 2 networks. Users also have an option to configure MVR service.
IGMPv3 snooping in R-VPLS is supported only for IES (not for VPRNs).
