Configuration prerequisites
Before you configure IPv6 BIDIR-PIM, complete the following tasks:
•
Enable IPv6 forwarding and configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the
domain can communicate with each other at Layer 3.
•
Determine the IPv6 address of a static RP and the IPv6 ACL that defines the range of IPv6 multicast
groups to be served by the static RP.
•
Determine the C-RP priority and the IPv6 ACL that defines the range of IPv6 multicast groups to be
served by each C-RP.
•
Determine the legal C-RP address range and the IPv6 ACL that defines the range of IPv6 multicast
groups to be served.
•
Determine the C-RP-Adv interval.
•
Determine the C-RP timeout timer.
•
Determine the C-BSR priority.
•
Determine the hash mask length.
•
Determine the IPv6 ACL defining the legal BSR address range.
•
Determine the BS period.
