HP 6125XLG - Configuration Prerequisites; Enabling Ipv6 BIDIR-PIM

298
Task at a
g
lance
(Required.) Configuring an RP:
• Configuring a static RP
• Configuring a C-RP
• Configuring the maximum number of IPv6 BIDIR-PIM RPs
NOTE:
You must configure a static RP or C-RPs for dynamic RP election. In an IPv6 network with a static RP, skip the task
of configuring a BSR.
Configuring a BSR:
• (Required.) Configuring a C-BSR
• (Optional.) Configuring an IPv6 PIM domain border
• (Optional.) Disabling the BSM semantic fragmentation function
(Optional.) Configuring common IPv6 PIM features
Configuration prerequisites
Before you configure IPv6 BIDIR-PIM, configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the
domain are interoperable at the network layer.
Enabling IPv6 BIDIR-PIM
Because IPv6 BIDIR-PIM is implemented on the basis of IPv6 PIM-SM, you must enable IPv6 PIM-SM
before enabling IPv6 BIDIR-PIM. When you deploy an IPv6 BIDIR-PIM domain, HP recommends that you
enable IPv6 PIM-SM on all non-border interfaces of the domain.
IMPORTANT:
A
ll interfaces on a device must be enabled with the same IPv6 PIM mode.
To enable IPv6 BIDIR-PIM:
