2-1 PIM-DM Typical Environment

The configuration procedure for SwitchA and SwitchB is as below:

(1) Configure SwitchA:

Switch(config)#ipv6 pim multicast-routing

Switch(config)#interface vlan 1

Switch(Config-if-Vlan1)#ipv6 address 2000:10:1:1::1/64

Switch(Config-if-Vlan1)#ipv6 pim dense-mode

Switch(Config-if-Vlan1)#exit

Switch(config)#interface vlan2

Switch(Config-if-Vlan2)#ipv6 address 2000:12:1:1:: 1/64

Switch(Config-if-Vlan2)#ipv6 pim dense-mode

(2) Configure SwitchB:

Switch(config)#ip pim multicast-routing

Switch(config)#interface vlan 1

Switch(Config-if-Vlan1)#ipv6 address 2000:12:1:1::2/64

Switch(Config-if-Vlan1)#ipv6 pim dense-mode

Switch(Config-if-Vlan1)#exit

Switch(config)#interface vlan 2

Switch(Config-if-Vlan2)#ipv6 address 2000:20:1:1::1/64

Switch(Config-if-Vlan2)#ipv6 pim dense-mode

44.1.4 PIM-DM6 Troubleshooting

When configuring and using PIM-DM protocol, PIM-DM protocol may fail to work normally due to physical

connections, incorrect configuration and so on. So, users shall note the following points:

Assure the physical connection is correct.

Assure the Protocol of Interface and Link is UP (use show interface command);

Assure PIM Protocol is turned on in Global Mode (use ipv6 pim multicast-routing command )

Start PIM-DM Protocol on the interface (use ipv6 pim dense-mode command)

Unicast route shall be used to carry out RPF examination for multicast protocol. So the correctness of unicast
