Enabling IPv6 multicast routing
Enable IPv6 multicast routing before you configure any Layer 3 IPv6 multicast functionality in the
public network or VPN instance.
To enable IPv6 multicast routing:
Step
Command
Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view
N/A
2.
Enable IPv6 multicast
routing and enter IPv6 MRIB
view.

By default, IPv6 multicast routing
is disabled.
Configuring IPv6 multicast routing and forwarding
Before you configure IPv6 multicast routing and forwarding, complete the following tasks:
•
Configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain can interoperate at
the network layer.
•
Configure IPv6 PIM-DM or IPv6 PIM-SM.
Specifying the longest prefix match principle
You can enable the device to use the longest prefix match principle for RPF route selection. For more
information about RPF route selection, see "RPF check process."
To specify the longest prefix match principle for RPF route selection:
Step
Command

3. Specify the longest prefix
match principle
for RPF
route selection.

By default, the
route preference
principle is used.
Configuring IPv6 multicast load splitting
You can enable the device to split multiple IPv6 multicast data flows on a per-source basis or on a
per-source-and-group basis.
