Configuration prerequisites
Before you configure IPv6 BIDIR-PIM, configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices
in the domain can interoperate 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. As a best practice, enable IPv6 PIM-SM on all non-border
interfaces on routers when you deploy an IPv6 BIDIR-PIM 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
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
