Clear routing entries from the IPv6
multicast routing table

NOTE:

For more information about designated forwarder (DF), see the chapter “IPv6 PIM configuration.”

CAUTION:

The reset command clears the information in the IPv6 multicast routing table or the multicast forwarding
table and might cause transmission failure of IPv6 multicast information.

When a routing entry is deleted from the IPv6 multicast routing table, the corresponding forwarding
entry is also deleted from the IPv6 multicast forwarding table.

When a forwarding entry is deleted from the IPv6 multicast forwarding table, the corresponding routing
entry is also deleted from the IPv6 multicast routing table.

Troubleshooting IPv6 multicast policy configuration

Abnormal termination of IPv6 multicast data

Symptom

A host sends an MLD report announcing its joining an IPv6 multicast group (G). However, no

member information about the IPv6 multicast group (G) exists on the intermediate router. The

intermediate router can receive IPv6 multicast packets successfully, but the packets cannot reach the
stub network.

The interface of the intermediate router receives the IPv6 multicast packets, but no corresponding (S,
G) entry exists in the IPv6 PIM routing table.

Analysis

The multicast ipv6 boundary command filters IPv6 multicast packets received on an interface. If an

IPv6 multicast packet fails to match the IPv6 ACL rule of this command, IPv6 PIM will create no

routing entry.

In addition, the source-policy command in IPv6 PIM filters received IPv6 multicast packets. If an IPv6
multicast packet fails to match the IPv6 ACL rule of this command, IPv6 PIM will not create a routing

entry, either.

Solution

1.

Use the display current-configuration command to display the IPv6 ACL rule configured on the

multicast forwarding boundary. Change the IPv6 ACL rule used in the multicast ipv6 boundary
