Enabling IPv6 PIM-SM
You must enable IPv6 PIM-SM before enabling IPv6 BIDIR-PIM because IPv6 BIDIR-PIM is
implemented on the basis of IPv6 PIM-SM. To deploy an IPv6 BIDIR-PIM domain, enable IPv6
PIM-SM on all non-border interfaces of the domain.
On a router, all interfaces must be configured with the same IPv6 PIM mode.
To enable IPv6 PIM-SM:
Step Command
Remarks
1.
Enter system view.

2.
Enable IPv6 multicast
routing.
multicast ipv6 routing-enable
Disabled by default.
3.
Enter interface view.

4.
Enable IPv6 PIM-SM.

Enabling IPv6 BIDIR-PIM
Perform this configuration on all routers in the IPv6 BIDIR-PIM domain.
To enable IPv6 BIDIR-PIM:

Disabled by default.
Configuring an RP
CAUTION:
When both IPv6 PIM-SM and IPv6 BIDIR-PIM run on the IPv6 PIM network, do not use the same RP
to serve IPv6 PIM-SM and IPv6 BIDIR-PIM. Otherwise, exceptions might occur to the IPv6 PIM
routing table.
