Configuring PIM for IPv4 and IPv6 (Web)

This section provides information about the OpenManage Switch
Administrator pages for configuring and monitoring PIM-SM and PIM-DM
for IPv4 and IPv6 multicast routing on a PowerConnect 8000/8100-series
switch. For details about the fields on a page, click
NOTE:
The OpenManage Switch Administrator pages to configure IPv4 multicast
routing and IPv6 multicast routing is very similar. The figures in this section show
the IPv4 multicast configuration pages. To configure IPv6 multicast with PIM, use
the pages available from the IPv6 Multicast → PIM menu.

PIM Global Configuration

Use the Global Configuration page to configure the administrative status of
PIM-DM or PIM-SM on the switch. It is strongly recommended that IGMP
be enabled on any switch on which IPv4 PIM is enabled and MLD be enabled
on any switch for which IPv6 PIM is enabled. This ensures that the multicast
router behaves as expected.
To display the page, click IPv4 Multicast → PIM → Global Configuration or
IPv6 Multicast → PIM → Global Configuration in the navigation panel.
