Parameters
ipv6-rp-address: Specifies the IPv6 address of the static RP. This address must be a valid IPv6 global
unicast address.
acl6-number: Specifies an IPv6 basic ACL number in the range of 2000 to 2999 to filter IPv6 multicast
groups. The C-RP is designated only to IPv6 multicast groups that pass the ACL filtering. The static RP is
designated to all IPv6 multicast groups FF00::/8 when any of the following conditions exists:
• You do not specify any ACL.
• The specified ACL does not exist.
• The specified ACL does not contain any valid rules.
bidir: Specifies IPv6 BIDIR-PIM to which the static RP is designated. If you do not specify this keyword, the
PIM mode is IPv6 PIM-SM.
preferred: Gives priority to the static RP if the static RP and the dynamic RP exist at the same time in the
network. The dynamic RP takes effect only if no static RP exists in the network. If you do not specify this
keyword, the dynamic RP has priority, and the static RP takes effect only if no dynamic RP exists in the
network or when the dynamic RP fails.
Usage guidelines
You do not need to enable IPv6 PIM on an interface that acts as a static RP.
In an ACL, the source field specifies the IPv6 multicast group range to which the static RP is designated.
If you specify a VPN instance in the ACL, the ACL does not take effect. The other optional parameters
except the time-range keyword and the fragment keyword are ignored.
When the ACL rules referenced by a static RP change, new RPs must be elected for all IPv6 multicast
groups.
