NOTE:

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

performed according to the MTU of the outgoing interface.

Configuring IPv6 administrative scoping

With administrative scoping disabled, an IPv6 BIDIR-PIM domain has only one BSR. The BSR manages

the whole network. To manage your network more effectively and specifically, you can partition the IPv6

BIDIR-PIM domain into multiple admin-scope zones. Each admin-scope zone maintains a BSR, which

serves a specific multicast group range. The global scope zone also maintains a BSR, which serves all the
rest multicast groups.

Enabling IPv6 administrative scoping

Before you configure an IPv6 admin-scope zone, you must enable IPv6 administrative scoping first.
Perform the following configuration on all routers in the IPv6 PIM-SM domain.
Follow these steps to enable IPv6 administrative scoping:

To do…

Use the command…

Enter IPv6 PIM view

Required
Disabled by default

Configuring an IPv6 admin-scope zone boundary

The boundary of each IPv6 admin-scope zone is formed by ZBRs. Each admin-scope zone maintains a

BSR, which serves a specific IPv6 multicast group range. IPv6 multicast packets (such as assert messages

and bootstrap messages) that belong to this range cannot cross the admin-scope zone boundary.
Perform the following configuration on routers that you want to configure as a ZBR.
Follow these steps to configure an admin-scope zone boundary:

Configure an IPv6 multicast
forwarding boundary

multicast ipv6 boundary
{ ipv6-group-address prefix-length | scope
{ scope-id | admin-local | global |

organization-local | site-local } }

Required
By default, no IPv6 multicast

forwarding boundary is

configured.
