Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

N/A

2.

Enter IPv6 PIM view.

pim ipv6

N/A

3.

Configure an interface as a
C-BSR.

c-bsr ipv6-address [ hash-length
[ priority ] ]

No C-BSRs are configured by
default.

4.

Configure a legal BSR

address range.

bsr-policy acl6-number

Optional.
No restrictions by default.

NOTE:

Because a large amount of information needs to be exchanged between a BSR and the other devices in the
IPv6 PIM-SM domain, a relatively large bandwidth should be provided between the C-BSR and the other

devices in the IPv6 PIM-SM domain.

Configuring an IPv6 PIM domain border

As the administrative core of an IPv6 PIM-SM domain, the BSR sends the collected RP-set information in

the form of bootstrap messages to all routers in the IPv6 PIM-SM domain.
An IPv6 PIM domain border is a bootstrap message boundary. Each BSR has its specific service scope.

IPv6 PIM domain border interfaces partition a network into different IPv6 PIM-SM domains. Bootstrap
messages cannot cross a domain border in either direction.
Perform the following configuration on routers that you want to configure as an IPv6 PIM domain border.

pim ipv6 bsr-boundary

No IPv6 PIM domain border is
configured by default.

Configuring C-BSR parameters globally

In each IPv6 PIM-SM domain, a unique BSR is elected from C-BSRs. The C-RPs in the IPv6 PIM-SM domain
send advertisement messages to the BSR. The BSR summarizes the advertisement messages to form an

RP-set and advertises it to all routers in the IPv6 PIM-SM domain. All the routers use the same hash

algorithm to get the RP address that corresponds to specific IPv6 multicast groups.
Perform the following configuration on C-BSR routers.
