Disabling SPT switchover
If an S10500 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 configure 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.
CAUTION:
For an S10500 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 the spt-switch-threshold infinity command
on a switch that might become an RP (namely, a static RP or a C-RP).
