Hi Mikael, Sorry suffering from sleep deprivation today. I don't know what I was thinking right IPv6 = MLD. So I guess it's the same as for IPv4 then. I don't understand it either why there's a choice to enable interface under IGMP/MLD separately from PIM when both are required anyways. This should work as everyone would expect and Cisco should fix it.
