Required
No C-RPs are configured by

z When configuring a C-RP, ensure a relatively large bandwidth between this C-RP and the
other devices in the IPv6 PIM-SM domain.
z An RP can serve multiple IPv6 multicast groups or all IPv6 multicast groups. Only one RP
can forward IPv6 multicast traffic for an IPv6 multicast group at a moment.
Enabling embedded RP
With the Embedded RP feature enabled, the router can resolve the RP address directly from the
IPv6 multicast group address of an IPv6 multicast packets. This RP can replace the statically
configured RP or the RP dynamically calculated based on the BSR mechanism. Thus, the DR
does not need to know the RP address beforehand.
Follow these steps to enable embedded RP:
To do... Use the command... Remarks
Enter system view system-view —
Enter IPv6 PIM view pim ipv6 —
Enable embedded RP embedded-rp [ acl6-number ]
Optional
By default, embedded RP is
enabled for IPv6 multicast
groups in the default embedded
RP address scopes.
