IPV
6 MULTICAST ROUTE
ipv6 multicast route
Overview Use this command to add an IPv6 static multicast route for a specific multicast
source and group IPv6 address to the multicast Routing Information Base (RIB).
This IPv6 multicast route is used to forward IPv6 multicast traffic from a specific
source and group ingressing on an upstream interface to a single or range of
downstream interfaces.
See detailed usage notes below to configure static multicast router ports when
using static IPv6 multicast routes with EPSR, and the destination VLAN is an EPSR
data VLAN.
Use the no variant of this command to either remove an IPv6 static multicast route
set with this command or to remove a specific downstream interface from an IPv6
static multicast route for a specific IPv6 multicast source and group address.
Syntax
ipv6 multicast route <ipv6-source-addr> <ipv6-group-addr>
<upstream-interface> [<downstream-interface>]
no ipv6 multicast route <ipv6-source-addr> <ipv6-group-addr>
[<upstream-interface> <downstream-interface>]
Default By default, no static routes exist.
Mode Global Configuration
Usage notes Only one multicast route entry per IPv6 address and multicast group can be
specified. Therefore, if one entry for an IPv6 static multicast route is configured,
PIM will not be able to update this multicast route in any way.
If a dynamic multicast route exists, you cannot create a static multicast route with
the same source IPv6 address and group IPv6 address. An error message is
displayed and logged. To add a new static multicast route, either wait for the
dynamic multicast route to time out or clear the dynamic multicast route with the
clear ipv6 mroute command.
To update an existing IPv6 static multicast route entry with new or additional
downstream interfaces, you must first remove the existing static multicast route
and then add the new static multicast route with all downstream interfaces
Parameter Description
<ipv6-source-addr> Source IPv6 address, in dotted decimal notation in the
format X.X::X.X.
<ipv6-group-addr> Group IP address, in dotted decimal notation in the
format X.X::X.X.
<upstream-interface> Upstream interface on which the multicast packets
ingress.
<downstream-interface> Downstream interface or range of interfaces to which
the multicast packets are sent.
