Usage Guidelines
Before using this command, enable CFS distribution over IPv6 using the cfs ipv6 distribute command.
All CFS over IP enabled switches with similar multicast addresses form one CFS over IP fabric. CFS
protocol-specific distributions, such as the keepalive mechanism for detecting network topology
changes, use the IP multicast address to send and receive information. CFS distributions for application
data use directed unicast.
You can configure a CFS over IP multicast address value for IPv6. The default IPv6 multicast address is
ff15::efff:4653. Examples of the IPv6 Admin scope range are ff15::0000:0000 to ff15::ffff:ffff and
ff18::0000:0000 to ff18::ffff:ffff.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure an IP multicast address for CFS over IPv6:
switch(config)# cfs ipv6 mcast-address ff13::e244:4754
Distribution over this IP type will be affected
Change multicast address for CFS-IP ?
Are you sure? (y/n) [n] y
The following example shows how to revert to the default IPv6 multicast address for CFS distribution
over IPv6:
switch(config)# no cfs ipv6 ff13::e244:4754
Distribution over this IP type will be affected
Change multicast address for CFS-IP ?
Are you sure? (y/n) [n] y
