Enabling Ipv6 Pim Passive Mode; Enabling Ipv6 Pim Nsr; Enabling Snmp Notifications For Ipv6 Pim - HPE FlexNetwork 5510 HI Series Configuration Manual

Enabling IPv6 PIM passive mode

To guard against IPv6 PIM hello spoofing, you can enable IPv6 PIM passive mode on a receiver-side
interface. The interface cannot receive or forward IPv6 PIM protocol messages (excluding register,
register-stop and C-RP-Adv messages), and acts as the DR on the subnet. In IPv6 BIDIR-PIM, it
also acts as the DF.
Configuration restrictions and guidelines
When you enable IPv6 PIM passive mode, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
• This feature takes effect only when IPv6 PIM-DM or IPv6 PIM-SM is enabled on the interface.
• To avoid duplicate multicast data transmission and flow loop, do not enable this feature on a
shared-media LAN with multiple IPv6 PIM routers.
Configuration procedure

mode on the interface.

Enabling IPv6 PIM NSR

This feature enables IPv6 PIM to back up protocol state information, including IPv6 PIM neighbor
information and routes, from the active process to the standby process. The standby process
immediately takes over when the active process fails. Use this feature to avoid route flapping and
forwarding interruption for IPv6 PIM when an active/standby switchover occurs.
To enable IPv6 PIM NSR:
Step
Enter system view.
1.
Enable IPv6 PIM NSR.

Enabling SNMP notifications for IPv6 PIM

To report critical IPv6 PIM events to an NMS, enable SNMP notifications for IPv6 PIM. For PIM event
notifications to be sent correctly, you must also configure SNMP as described in Network
Management and Monitoring Configuration Guide.
To enable SNMP notifications for IPv6 PIM:
Step
Enter system view.
