Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.

Enter IPv6 PIM view.

ipv6 pim [ vpn-instance

N/A

3.

Disable the BSM semantic

fragmentation function.

undo bsm-fragment enable

By default, BSM semantic
fragmentation is enabled.

NOTE:

Generally, a BSR performs BSM semantic fragmentation according to the MTU of its BSR interface. For
BSMs originated due to learning of a new IPv6 PIM neighbor, semantic fragmentation is performed
according to the MTU of the interface that sends the BSMs.

Configuring IPv6 multicast source registration

In an IPv6 PIM-SM domain, the source-side DR sends register messages to the RP, and these register

messages have different IPv6 multicast source or IPv6 multicast group addresses. You can configure a

filtering rule to filter register messages so that the RP can provide services for specific IPv6 multicast
groups. If the filtering rule denies an (S, G) entry, or if the filtering rule does not define an action for this

entry, the RP sends a register-stop message to the DR to stop the registration process for the IPv6 multicast

data.
In view of information integrity of a register message in the transmission process, you can configure the
device to calculate the checksum based on the entire register message. However, to reduce the workload

of encapsulating data in register messages and for the sake of interoperability, do not use this checksum

calculation method.

3.

Configure a filtering rule for
register messages.

register-policy acl6-number

By default, no register filtering rule
exists.

Configure the device to
calculate the checksum based

on the entire register
message.

register-whole-checksum

By default, the device calculates
the checksum based on the header
of a register message.

Configuring switchover to SPT

CAUTION:

If the router is an RP, disabling switchover to SPT might cause multicast traffic forwarding failures on the
source-side DR. When disabling switchover to SPT, be sure you fully understand its impact on your

network.

To configure switchover to SPT:
