Enabling IPv6 PIM-SM

With IPv6 PIM-SM enabled, a router sends hello messages periodically to discover IPv6 PIM neighbors
and processes messages from the IPv6 PIM neighbors. When you deploy an IPv6 PIM-SM domain,
enable IPv6 PIM-SM on all non-border interfaces of the routers.
To do...
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable IPv6 multicast routing.
3. Enter interface view.
4. Enable IPv6 PIM-SM.
All the interfaces of the same device must work in the same IPv6 PIM mode.
For more information about the multicast ipv6 routing-enable command, see IP Multicast Command
Reference.

Configuring an RP

An RP can be manually configured or dynamically elected through the BSR mechanism. For a large IPv6
PIM network, static RP configuration is a tedious job. Generally, static RP configuration is just a backup
means for the dynamic RP election mechanism to enhance the robustness and operation manageability of
a multicast network.
Use the command...
