Configuration prerequisites
Before you configure IPv6 PIM-DM, configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the
domain are interoperable at the network layer.
Enabling IPv6 PIM-DM
Enable IPv6 multicast routing before configuring IPv6 PIM.
With IPv6 PIM-DM enabled on interfaces, routers can establish IPv6 PIM neighbor relationship and
process IPv6 PIM messages from their IPv6 PIM neighbors. When you deploy an IPv6 PIM-DM domain,
H3C recommends that you enable IPv6 PIM-DM on all non-border interfaces of routers.
IMPORTANT:
All the interfaces on a device must operate in the same IPv6 PIM mode in the public network or the same
VPN instance.
To enable IPv6 PIM-DM:
Step Command Remarks
1. Enter system view. system-view N/A
2. Enable IPv6 multicast routing
and enter IPv6 MRIB view. ipv6 multicast routing
[ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ] By default, IPv6 multicast routing is
disabled.
3. Return to system view. quit
4. Enter interface view.
