Configure the DR Priority Value

Configuring the PIMv6 DR priority configures the designated router priority value for the PIMv6 interface. A designated router sets up multicast route entries and sends corresponding join or prune messages and register messages on behalf of directly connected receivers and sources, respectively.

  1. 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. Set the DR priority to 10.
    SEFOS# configure terminal
    SEFOS(config)# interface vlan 7
    SEFOS(config-if)# ipv6 pim dr-priority 10
    SEFOS(config-if)# end
    
  3. Review the DR priority.
    SEFOS# show ipv6 pim interface detail
     
    vlan7 34 is up
    ...
        PIM DR Priority: 10
    ...
