IGMP and MLD Snooping on VXLAN

The delivery of IP multicast in VXLAN services can be optimized with IGMP and MLD snooping. IGMP and MLD snooping are supported in EVPN-VXLAN VPLS services and in EVPN-VXLAN VPRN/IES R-VPLS services. When enabled, IGMP and MLD reports are snooped on SAPs or SDP bindings, but also on VXLAN bindings, to create or modify entries in the MFIB for the VPLS service.

When configuring IGMP and MLD snooping in EVPN-VXLAN VPLS services, consider the following:
