• Determine the IPv6 ACL rule defining a legal BSR address range.
• Determine the BS period.
• Determine the BS timeout.
• Determine the IPv6 ACL rule for register message filtering.
• Determine the register suppression time.
• Determine the register probe time.
• Determine the IPv6 ACL rule and sequencing rule for disabling an SPT switchover.
Enabling IPv6 PIM-SM
With IPv6 PIM-SM enabled, a router sends hello messages periodically to discover IPv6 PIM neighbors
and processes messages from the IPv6 PIM neighbors. When you deploy an IPv6 PIM-SM domain,
enable IPv6 PIM-SM on all non-border interfaces of the routers.
IMPORTANT:

ll the interfaces of the same device must operate in the same IPv6 PIM mode.

Configuring an RP
An RP can be manually configured or dynamically elected through the BSR mechanism. For a large IPv6
PIM network, static RP configuration is a tedious job. Generally, static RP configuration is just a backup
method for the dynamic RP election mechanism to enhance the robustness and operation manageability
of a multicast network.
Configuring a static RP
If only one dynamic RP exists in a network, manually configuring a static RP can avoid communication
interruption because of single-point failures. It can also avoid frequent message exchange between C-RPs
and the BSR.
To enable a static RP to work normally, you must perform this configuration on all routers in the IPv6
PIM-SM domain and specify the same RP address.
Perform the following configuration on all the routers in the IPv6 PIM-SM domain.
