Chapter 1 Implementing IPv6 Multicast
Implementing IPv6 Multicast
Configuring Bidirectional PIM and Displaying Bidirectional PIM Information
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps:
Resetting the PIM Traffic Counters
If PIM malfunctions or in order to verify that the expected number of PIM packets are received and sent,
the user can clear PIM traffic counters. Once the traffic counters are cleared, the user can enter the
show
ipv6 pim traffic command to verify that PIM is functioning correctly and that PIM packets are being
received and sent correctly.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps:
Command Purpose
Step 1 configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
ipv6 pim [ vrf vrf-name ] rp-address ipv6-address
[ group-access-list ] [ bidir ]
Example:
Switch(config)# ipv6 pim rp-address
2001:DB8::01:800:200E:8C6C bidir
Configures the address of a PIM RP for a particular group range.
Use of the
bidir keyword means that the group range will be
used for bidirectional shared-tree forwarding.
Step 3
exit
Example:
Switch(config-if)# exit
Exits global configuration mode, and returns the switch to
privileged EXEC mode.
Step 4 show ipv6 pim [ vrf vrf-name ] df [ interface-type
interface-number ] [ rp-address ]
Example:
Switch# show ipv6 pim df
Displays the designated forwarder (DF)-election state of each
interface for RP
Step 5 show ipv6 pim [vrf vrf-name ] df
winner [ interface-type interface-number ]
[ rp-address ]
Example:
Switch# show ipv6 pim df winner ethernet
1/0 200::1
Displays the DF-election winner on each interface for each RP.
Step 6 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
Command Purpose
Step 1 clear ipv6 pim [ vrf vrf-name ] traffic
Example:
Switch# clear ipv6 pim traffic
Resets the PIM traffic counters.
Step 2
show ipv6 pim [ vrf vrf-name ] traffic
Example:
Switch# show ipv6 pim traffic
Displays the PIM traffic counters.
Step 3
copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
