Configuring The Rpf Vector Feature - HP FlexFabric 5950 series Configuration Manual

•
Perform this task on PE devices.
•
On a PE, the data-group range for an MD cannot include the default-group or data-groups of
any other MD.
•
For an MD that transmits both IPv4 and IPv6 multicast packets, the data-group range in MD
IPv4 and IPv6 address family views cannot overlap.
•
If the public network runs PIM-SSM, the data-group range for an MD on a PE device can
overlap with data-group ranges for other MDs on other PE devices.
Configuration procedure
To configure MDT switchover parameters:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter MD view.
3. Enter MD address family
view.
4. Configure the data-group
range and the switchover
criteria.
5. (Optional.) Set the
data-delay period.

Configuring the RPF vector feature

Enabling the RPF vector feature
This feature enables the device to insert the RPF vector (IP address of the ASBR in the local AS) in
PIM join messages for other devices to perform RPF check.
Perform this task on PE devices (except the PE devices that do not have attached receivers).
To enable the RPF vector feature:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter MRIB view of a VPN
instance.
3. Enable the RPF vector
feature.
Enabling RPF vector compatibility
This feature enables the device to work with other manufacturers' products on RPF vectors for
interoperability purposes. You must enable this feature on all HPE devices on the public network.
To enable RPF vector compatibility:
Command

•
Enter MD IPv4 address
family view:
address-family ipv4
•
Enter MD IPv6 address
