Configuration Prerequisites; Enabling Ipv6 Pim-Sm - HP A6600 Configuration Manual

Task
Configuring IPv6 PIM common features

Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure IPv6 BIDIR-PIM, complete the following tasks:
Enable IPv6 forwarding and configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the
•
domain can communicate with each other at Layer 3
Determine the IPv6 address of a static RP and the IPv6 ACL that defines the range of IPv6 multicast
•
groups to be served by the static RP
Determine the C-RP priority and the IPv6 ACL that defines the range of IPv6 multicast groups to be
•
served by each C-RP
• Determine the legal C-RP address range and the IPv6 ACL that defines the range of IPv6 multicast
groups to be served
Determine the C-RP-Adv interval
•
Determine the C-RP timeout
•
Determine the C-BSR priority
•
Determine the hash mask length
•
Determine the IPv6 ACL defining the legal BSR address range
•
Determine the BS period
•
Determine the BS timeout
•

Enabling IPv6 PIM-SM

You must enable IPv6 PIM-SM before enabling IPv6 BIDIR-PIM because IPv6 BIDIR-PIM is implemented on
the basis of IPv6 PIM-SM. To deploy an IPv6 BIDIR-PIM domain, enable IPv6 PIM-SM on all non-border
interfaces of the domain.
To do...
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable IPv6 multicast routing.
3. Enter interface view.
4. Enable IPv6 PIM-SM.
On a router, all interfaces in the same VPN instance must work in the same IPv6 PIM mode. For more
information about the multicast ipv6 routing-enable command, see IP Multicast Command Reference.
