Configuration prerequisites

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

Enabling IPv6 PIM-SM

Enable IPv6 multicast routing before
With IPv6 PIM-SM enabled on interfaces, routers can establish IPv6 PIM neighbor relationship and
process IPv6 PIM messages from their IPv6 PIM neighbors. When you deploy an IPv6 PIM-SM domain,
HP recommends enabling IPv6 PIM-SM on all non-border interfaces.
IMPORTANT:
All the interfaces on the same router must operate in the same IPv6 PIM mode.
To enable IPv6 PIM-SM:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable IPv6 multicast routing.
3. Enter interface view.
