Configuring IPv6 PIM Common Features Optional
Configuration Prerequisites
Before configuring IPv6 PIM-DM, complete the following task:
z Configure any IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain are
interoperable at the network layer.
Before configuring IPv6 PIM-DM, prepare the following data:
z The interval between state refresh messages
z Minimum time to wait before receiving a new refresh message
z Hop limit value of state-refresh messages
z Graft retry period
Enabling IPv6 PIM-DM
With IPv6 PIM-DM enabled, a router sends hello messages periodically to discover IPv6 PIM
neighbors and processes messages from the IPv6 PIM neighbors. When deploying an IPv6
PIM-DM domain, you are recommended to enable IPv6 PIM-DM on all non-border interfaces of
routers.
Follow these steps to enable IPv6 PIM-DM:
