Create a PIMv6 Neighbor

Before you attempt to use the instructions in this section, you must enable PIMv6 in router A and router B so that they exchange the PIMv6 hello message and form neighbors. See Enable PIMv6 for instructions.

1. In both routers, associate the VLAN 7 interface with PIMv6 component 1.

   SEFOS(config)# interface vlan 7
   SEFOS(config-if)# ipv6 pim componentId 1
   SEFOS(config-if)# end

2. In router A, review the PIMv6 neighbor router for the PIMv6 enabled router.

   SEFOS# show ipv6 pim neighbor
    
   Neighbor IfName/Idx Uptime/Expiry Ver   DRPri CompId  Override   LanDelay
   Address                                  /Mode          Interval
   --------- ---------- ------------- ---    -----   ------   -------    -------
   fe80::7777::21 vlan7/34   00:02:09/95    v2  1         1         0   0

3. In router A, review the PIMv6 neighbor for VLAN 7.

   SEFOS# show ipv6 pim neighbor vlan 7
    
   Neighbor    IfName/Idx Uptime/Expiry Ver DRPri   CompId   Override  LanDelay
   Address                                  /Mode            Interval
    
   ---------      ---------- ------------- --- -----   ------   --------  --------
   fe80::7777::21 vlan7/34   00:09:30/75    v2  1         1         0   0
