Configuring IPv6 multicast routing and forwarding
Before you configure IPv6 multicast routing and forwarding, complete the following tasks:
•
Configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain can interoperate at
the network layer.
•
Configure IPv6 PIM-DM or IPv6 PIM-SM.
Specifying the longest prefix match principle
You can enable the device to use the longest prefix match principle for RPF route selection. For more
information about RPF route selection, see
To specify the longest prefix match principle for RPF route selection:
Step
Enter system view.
1.
Enter IPv6 MRIB view.
2.
Specify the longest prefix

match principle for RPF
route selection.
Configuring IPv6 multicast load splitting
You can enable the device to split multiple IPv6 multicast data flows on a per-source basis or on a
per-source-and-group basis.
You do not need to enable IPv6 multicast routing before this configuration.
To configure IPv6 multicast load splitting:

Configuring an IPv6 multicast forwarding boundary
You can configure an interface as an IPv6 multicast forwarding boundary for an IPv6 multicast group
range. The interface cannot receive or forward IPv6 multicast packets for the groups in the range.
TIP:
You do not need to enable IPv6 multicast routing before this configuration.
