By default, the device immediately
triggers a switchover to SPT after

receiving the first multicast packet.

Configuring IPv6 PIM-SSM

IPv6 PIM-SSM requires MLDv2 support. Enable MLDv2 on IPv6 PIM routers that connect to multicast

receivers.

Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure IPv6 PIM-SSM, configure an IPv6 unicast IPv6 routing protocol so that all devices in

the domain are interoperable at the network layer.

Enabling IPv6 PIM-SM

The implementation of the IPv6 SSM model is based on subsets of IPv6 PIM-SM. Therefore, you must

enable IPv6 PIM-SM before configuring IPv6 PIM-SSM.
When you deploy an IPv6 PIM-SSM domain, enable IPv6 PIM-SM on non-border interfaces of the
routers.

IMPORTANT:

All the interfaces on a device must be enabled with the same IPv6 PIM mode.
