Configuring common IPv6 PIM features
For the configuration tasks in this section, the following rules apply:
•
The configurations made in IPv6 PIM view are effective on all interfaces. The configurations
made in interface view are effective only on the current interface.
•
A configuration made in interface view always has priority over the same configuration made in
IPv6 PIM view, regardless of the configuration sequence.

Configuration prerequisites
Before you configure common IPv6 PIM features, complete the following tasks:
•

domain are interoperable at the network layer.
•

•
Determine the prune message delay (global value/interface level value).
•
Determine the prune override interval (global value/interface level value).
•
Determine the prune delay.
•
Determine the hello interval (global value/interface level value).
