1214 Managing IPv4 and IPv6 Multicast
Configuring PIM for IPv4 and IPv6 (Web)
This section provides information about the OpenManage Switch 
Administrator pages for configuring and monitoring PIM-SM and PIM-DM 
for IPv4 and IPv6 multicast routing on a PowerConnect 8000/8100-series 
switch. For details about the fields on a page, click  at the top of the page.
PIM Global Configuration
Use the Global Configuration
 
page to configure the administrative status of 
PIM-DM or PIM-SM on the switch. It is strongly recommended that IGMP 
be enabled on any switch on which IPv4 PIM is enabled and MLD be enabled 
on any switch for which IPv6 PIM is enabled. This ensures that the multicast 
router behaves as expected.

NOTE: The OpenManage Switch Administrator pages to configure IPv4 multicast 
routing and IPv6 multicast routing is very similar. The figures in this section show 
the IPv4 multicast configuration pages. To configure IPv6 multicast with PIM, use 
the pages available from the IPv6 Multicast → PIM menu.
