32.1.10 Configuring IPv6 Multicast Routing in VRF [SL-L3A]

Points to note

To use IPv6 multicast routing in VRFs, you must set an address on a loopback interface for each VRF, and then specify the settings below in global configuration mode. In this example IPv6 multicast routing configuration, the loopback address of VRF 10 is 2001:db8::10.

Note that, in addition to the settings shown here, you must configure IPv6 PIM on at least one interface for each VRF by using the ipv6 pim command.

Command examples

  1. (config)# vrf definition 10

    (config-vrf)# exit

    Configures VRF 10.

  2. (config)# interface loopback 30

    (config-if)# vrf forwarding 10

    (config-if)# ipv6 address 2001:db8::10

    (config-if)# exit

    Sets a loopback address for the loopback 30 loopback interface of VRF 10.

  3. (config)# ipv6 multicast-routing vrf 10

    Enables IPv6 multicasting in VRF 10.
