Configuring SPT Switchover
If an S7500E series routing switch acts as an RP or the receiver-side DR, it initiates an STP
switchover process (by default) upon receiving the first IPv6 multicast packet along the RPT.
You can disable the switchover from RPT to SPT.
Follow these steps to disable SPT switchover:
To do...
Use the command...

spt-switch-threshold infinity
[ group-policy acl6-number
[ order order-value ] ]
Optional
By default, the device switches
to the SPT immediately after it
receives the first IPv6 multicast
packet from the RPT.
For an S7500E series Ethernet switch, once an IPv6 multicast forwarding entry is created,
subsequent IPv6 multicast data will not be encapsulated in register messages before being
forwarded even if a register outgoing interface is available. Therefore, to avoid forwarding
failure, do not use spt-switch-threshold infinity command on a switch that may become an
RP (namely, a static RP or a C-RP).
