pim ipv6 single-tag forward enable

Function

The pim ipv6 single-tag forward enable command enables a QinQ/dot1q VLAN tag termination sub-interface to forward IPv6 single-tagged PIM messages.

The undo pim ipv6 single-tag forward enable command restores the default configuration.

By default, a QinQ/dot1q VLAN tag termination sub-interface is not enabled to forward single-tagged IPv6 PIM messages.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

If a QinQ/dot1q VLAN tag termination sub-interface on the Router is connected to a downstream Router, run the pim ipv6 single-tag forward enable command to enable the sub-interface to forward single-tagged IPv6 PIM messages received from the downstream device.

Prerequisites

Multicast routing has been enabled using the multicast ipv6 routing-enable command in the system view, and IPv6 PIM-SM has been enabled on the sub-interface using the pim ipv6 sm command.

Precautions

The pim ipv6 single-tag forward enable command is mutually exclusive with the mld enable and mld static-group commands.

This command applies only to QinQ/dot1q VLAN tag termination sub-interfaces that are configured to terminate single-tagged IPv6 PIM messages or are not configured to terminate any tagged IPv6 PIM messages.

After the undo pim ipv6 single-tag forward enable command is run on a QinQ/dot1q VLAN tag termination sub-interface, QinQ/dot1q outbound interface entries of the sub-interface fail to be delivered to the sub-interface, causing multicast traffic forwarding failures.
