Configuring a static multicast route within a VRF

You can configure a static multicast route within a virtual routing instance (VRF).

1.Configure a VRF.

Device(config)# vrf vpn1

2.Configure the VRF address family for IPv6 and enter IPv6 address family configuration mode.

Device (config-vrf-vpn1)#address-family ipv6

3.Configure the destination IPv6 address.

Device (config-vrf-vpn1-ipv6)#ipv6 mroute 2001:0DB8:0:1::1/120 5100::192:1:1:1

Configuring the route precedence by specifying the route types

Precedence tables specify how routes are selected for multicast

PIM must be enabled at the global level.

Configure the none keyword to fill up the precedence table and ignore certain types of routes.

1.Enable PIM at the global level.

Device(config)# ipv6 router pim

2.Configure a precedence table.

Device(config-ipv6-pim-router)# route-precedence mc-non-default uc-non-default mc- default uc-default

Configures a precedence table for multicast route selection that first looks for a non-default route from the mRTM, then a non-default route from the uRTM, then a default route from the mRTM, and then a default route from the uRTM.

3.Configure the none keyword to fill up the precedence table in order to ignore certain types of route.

Device(config-ipv6-pim-router)# route-precedence mc-non-default mc-default uc-non- default none

Configures a precedence table for multicast route selection that ignores the default route from uRTM .

4.Return to global level.

Device(config-ipv6-pim-router)# exit

5.Enable PIM for a VRF.

Device(config)# ipv6 router pim vrf blue

6.Configure a precedence table for the VRF.

Device (config-ipv6-pim-router-vrf-blue)# route-precedence mc-non-default uc-non- default mc-default uc-default

Configures a precedence table that specifies a non-default route from the mRTM, then a non- default route from the uRTM, then a default route from the mRTM, and then a default route from the uRTM for the specified VRF,.

7.Configure the none keyword to fill up the precedence table.

Device(config-ipv6-pim-router-vrf-blue)# route-precedence mc-non-default mc- default uc-non-default none

Configures a precedence table that specifies the unicast default route for multicast for the specified VRF.
