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,
HP recommends that you enable IPv6 PIM-DM on all non-border interfaces of routers.
IMPORTANT:
A
ll the interfaces on a device must operate in the same IPv6 PIM mode in the public network or the same
V
PN instance.
