Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure IPv6 BIDIR-PIM, configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the
domain are interoperable at the network layer.

Enabling IPv6 BIDIR-PIM

Because IPv6 BIDIR-PIM is implemented on the basis of IPv6 PIM-SM, you must enable IPv6 PIM-SM
before enabling IPv6 BIDIR-PIM. When you deploy an IPv6 BIDIR-PIM domain, HP recommends that you
enable IPv6 PIM-SM on all non-border interfaces of the domain.
IMPORTANT:
All interfaces on a device must be enabled with the same IPv6 PIM mode.
To enable IPv6 BIDIR-PIM:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable IPv6 multicast
routing and enter MRIB
view.
3. Return to system view.
4. Enter interface view.
5. Enable IPv6 PIM-SM.
6. Return to system view.
7. Enter IPv6 PIM view
8. Enable IPv6 BIDIR-PIM
Configuring an RP:
Configuring a C-BSR
Configuring an IPv6 PIM domain border
Disabling the BSM semantic fragmentation function
Configuring common IPv6 PIM features
