Configuring SPT Switchover

If an S7500E series routing switch acts as an RP or the receiver-side DR, it initiates an STP

switchover process (by default) upon receiving the first IPv6 multicast packet along the RPT.

You can disable the switchover from RPT to SPT.

Follow these steps to disable SPT switchover:

To do...

Use the command...

Remarks

Enter system view

system-view

Enter IPv6 PIM view

pim ipv6

Disable the SPT switchover

spt-switch-threshold infinity

[ group-policy acl6-number

[ order order-value ] ]

Optional

By default, the device switches

to the SPT immediately after it

receives the first IPv6 multicast

packet from the RPT.

For an S7500E series Ethernet switch, once an IPv6 multicast forwarding entry is created,

subsequent IPv6 multicast data will not be encapsulated in register messages before being

forwarded even if a register outgoing interface is available. Therefore, to avoid forwarding

failure, do not use spt-switch-threshold infinity command on a switch that may become an

RP (namely, a static RP or a C-RP).
