events on multicast layers of IPv6
multicast.
2.4 IPv6 Multicast Configuration Example
Configuration Requiremetns
Figure 3 is network topology. R1 and the multicast soruce are located in one
network. R2 is set to be RP. R3 and the Receiver A are located in the same
network. R4 and the Receiver B are located in the same network. Assume that
devices and hosts are connected properly, IPv6 is enabled on every interface and
IPv6 unicast is enabled on every device.

Device Configuration
Step1: Enable IPv6 multicast rotue.
Enable IPv6 multicast route on R1. The configurations on R2, R3 and R4 are
similar.
DES-7200# configure terminal
DES-7200(config)# ipv6 multicast-routing
Step 2: Enable PIM-SMv6 on the interface.
Enable PIM-SMv6 on R1’s eth0. The configurations on R2, R3 and R4 are similar.
DES-7200(config)# interface eth 0
DES-7200(config-if)# ipv6 pim sparse-mode
DES-7200(config-if)# end
Step 3: Configure the candidate BSR and the candidate RP.
Set R2’s loopback1 to be C-BSR and C-RP
DES-7200(config)# interface loopback 1
DES-7200(config-if)# ipv6 address 2008:1::1/64
DES-7200(config-if)# ipv6 pim sparse-mode
DES-7200(config-if)# exit
DES-7200(config)# ipv6 pim bsr-candidate loopback 1
DES-7200(config)# ipv6 pim rp-candidate loopback 1
DES-7200(config-if)# end
Add the receiver into the multicast group. After the multicast source sends
multicast streams, you can run show commands to monitor operation..
Note
When you enable PIM-SMV6, MLD automatically runs on every interface,
respectively.
