Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

Before configuring Layer 3 IPv6 multicast, you must enable the IPv6 multicast routing function globally. Layer 3 IPv6 multicast protocols (such as PIM (IPv6) and MLD) and other Layer 3 IPv6 multicast functions can be configured only after IPv6 multicast routing is enabled.

Precautions

For the S5735-L, S5735S-L, S5735S-L-M, S5735-S, S5735-S-I, and S5735S-S, the multicast functions (both Layer 2 and Layer 3 multicast functions) conflict with the flow control function.

The undo multicast ipv6 routing-enable command deletes all IPv6 multicast configurations of the device. If IPv6 multicast services are running on the device, the IPv6 multicast services are interrupted when this command is executed. To restore IPv6 multicast services on the instance, you must re-configure the corresponding commands.

Example

# Enable IPv6 multicast routing globally.
