With IPv6 PIM-SM enabled, a router sends hello messages periodically to discover IPv6 PIM neighbors 

and processes messages from the IPv6 PIM neighbors. When deploying an IPv6 PIM-SM domain, you 

are recommended to enable IPv6 PIM-SM on all non-border interfaces of the routers.  

Follow these steps to enable IPv6 PIM-SM:  

To do... 

Use the command... 

Remarks 

Enter system view 

— 

Enable IPv6 multicast routing

Disabled by default  

 

All the interfaces of the same device must work in the same IPv6 PIM mode.  

 

For details about the multicast ipv6 routing-table command, see IPv6 Multicast Routing and 

Forwarding Commands in the IP Multicast Volume. 

 

An RP can be manually configured or dynamically elected through the BSR mechanism. For a large 

IPv6 PIM network, static RP configuration is a tedious job. Generally, static RP configuration is just a 

backup means for the dynamic RP election mechanism to enhance the robustness and operation 

manageability of a multicast network. 

If there is only one dynamic RP in a network, manually configuring a static RP can avoid communication 

interruption due to single-point failures and avoid frequent message exchange between C-RPs and the 

BSR.  

Perform the following configuration on all the routers in the IPv6 PIM-SM domain. 

Follow these steps to configure a static RP:
