32.1.4 IPv6 PIM-SM Setting

Points to note

IPv6 PIM-SM (sparse mode) needs to be set on interfaces running IPv6 multicast routing. For the configuration, use interface configuration mode. The following shows a PIM-SM configuration example in which 2001:db8::a/16 is used as the interface IPv6 address.

Command examples

1. (config)# interface vlan 10

   (config-if)# ipv6 address 2001:db8::a/16

   (config-if)# ipv6 enable

   Sets the IPv6 address.

2. (config-if)# ipv6 pim

   Specifies operation as an IPv6 PIM-SM (sparse mode).
