Abstract
Due to the depletion of the IPv4 address space, IPv6 addresses are becoming the only viable option when deploying new services, such as IPTV. In addition, IPv6 multicast addressing has the added benefit that any organization which owns IPv6 unicast address space, automatically owns IPv6 multicast address space. This session will discuss IPv6 multicast from the ground-up: IPv6 multicast protocol, deployment models (ASM, SSM, etc), similarities and differences with IPv4 multicast, co-existence with the deployment models for IPv6 unicast (dual-stack, MPLS 6PE / 6VPE, tunnelling). This session is suited for both service providers and enterprises. The audience is assumed to have a basic understanding of IPv6 addressing and IPv4 Multicast operation.

Multicast Control Plane and Forwarding Components

PIM Specification (RFC 4601)
TIB (Tree Information Base) Stores the state of all multicast distribution trees created by PIM / MLD messages (PIM J/P, PIM Assert, MLD)
IOS Implementation
PIM Topology Table. Displayed through show ipv6 pim topology. IOS MRIB: multicast routing information describing multicast distribution trees used for traffic forwarding. Displayed through show ipv6 mrib route. Currently only PIM Topology Table (TIB) is used to create the MRIB. Separation of TIB/MRIB provides flexibility to implement future multicast routing protocols. Show ipv6 mroute provides same information (IPv4 Multicast compatible). There is currently no equivalent data structure in IOS. IOS uses unicast RIB + Multicast BGP + Multicast Static Routes
MRIB (Multicast Routing Information Base)
Multicast topology table. Like RIB for unicast, but it contains routing information used for RPF check and PIM J/P sending. Also PIM Assert metric information Multicast forwarding information used to perform packet forwarding. Derived from the TIB. Implementation specific

Multicast Listener Discovery - MLD

Multicast Listener Discovery MLD

Multicast Host Membership Control
MLD is equivalent to IGMP in IPv4 MLD messages are ICMPv6 type messages: Report, Done, Query MLD messages use IPv6 link-local source addresses
MLD messages use IPv6 link-local multicast destination addresses

MLD packets use Router Alert option in IPv6 Hop-by-Hop Options extension header (RFC 2711) with Hop Limit =1
Required for routers to examine MLD messages sent to multicast addresses in which they normally have no interest

MLD is automatically enabled on all interfaces with ipv6 multicast-routing Routers implement MLDv2 with MLDv1 compatibility mode for MLDv1 hosts. The compatibility mode is maintained based on the multicast group address. MLD can be disabled on a per interface basis (e.g. for core interfaces or access interfaces without receivers) by no ipv6 mld router MLD ACLs allow access only to specific multicast groups and/or sources using ipv6 mld access-group SSM transition through SSM mapping for MLDv1 messages static or DNS

Reminder IPv4 Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF) Algorithm

Consider the following tables for RPF information
1. IPv4 Multicast BGP Table (AFI=1, SAFI=2) 2. IPv4 Static Multicast Routes (ip mroute) 3. IPv4 DVMRP RIB 4. IPv4 Unicast RIB (all IGPs + Unicast BGP (AFI=1, SAFI=1))
Select route with lowest administrative distance across these tables (within each table, longest-prefix match is performed) If 2 or more table have routes with same distance, select according to the order above Allows a route with a shorter-prefix match to be selected above a route with a longer-prefix match
Overriding unicast RIB with static mroute(s) Overriding Unicast BGP entries with Multicast BGP entries (presence in Unicast BGP does not guarantee multicast reachability!)
39
BRKRST-3301
Cisco Public
IPv6 RPF Algorithm

Select route with longest-prefix match from the following sources
1. IPv6 Static Multicast Routes 2. IPv6 Multicast BGP Table 3. IPv6 Unicast RIB (all IGPs, NOT IPv6 Unicast BGP)
If multiple longest-prefix matches exist, select the the route with the lowest administrative distance If multiple routes still exist, select according to the order above Essentially the same as unicast route selection with the difference that the Multicast RIB result is virtual, while for unicast the selected routes are merged in a real RIB. BGP IPv6 Unicast routes are NOT used in the RPF selection process
In IOS, command to override this (ipv6 multicast rpf use-bgp). This is not advised

RPF Interface vs. Neighbor (RFC 4601)

RPF Interface: chosen by the RPF algorithm (MRIB) tp reach the multicast source (SPT) or RP (shared tree) RPF Neighbor: PIM neighbor residing on the RPF Interface towards the multicast source (SPT) or RP (shared tree). PIM J/P messages can ONLY be sent to the RPF neighbor. Note: existence of an RPF Interface (but without an actual RPF Neighbour) is NOT enough to forward PIM J/P messages over that interface and a multicast distribution tree to be built

Immediate vs. Inherited OILs

New in the updated RFC 4601 (vs. RFC 2362) PIM States have Outgoing Interface Lists (OILs)
Immediate OIL: Built directly from the state of the relevant type
For example, immediate OIL for (S,G) state is the OIL that would be built if the router only had (S,G) state and no (*,G) or (S,G,rpt) state. This requires explicit PIM Joins / MLD Reports.
show ipv6 pim topology
Inherited OIL: Inherits state from other state types

For example, immediate OIL of parent (*,G) state is copied to inherited OIL for (S,G) state show ipv6 mrib route
show ipv6 mroute shows BOTH Immediate and Inherited OILs
Generally speaking, Inherited OILs are used for forwarding, Immediate OILs are used to make decisions about state maintenance

BootStrap Router (BSR) Overview

Multiple candidate BSRs (C-BSR), single BSR is elected from CBSR announcements, other C-BSR are backup
Uses BSR priority (highest=best), IP address as tie breaker (higher=best), pre-emptive BootStrap messages (BSMs) flooded hop-by-hop to FF02::D (All-PIM routers) controlled by RPF check
Multiple candidate RPs (C-RP) send unicast announcements to BSR, BSR stores all C-RP announcements in RP-Set RP-Set flooded hop-by-hop to FF02::D (All-PIM routers) controlled by RPF check
BSM filtering at border through ipv6 pim bsr border

All routers select RP from the RP-Set, using same algorithm
Ensures consistency
Uses C-RP priority (lowest=best), hash function value (highest=best) and IP address as tie breaker (highest=best)

Source Registering DR
IOS automatically creates unidirectional virtual tunnel interfaces One virtual tunnel for each active RP in the network IOS maintains tunnel as long as RP is known Virtual tunnel interface is UP automatically, line protocol is UP only when a valid RPF interface to the RP exists PIM Register messages are sent through tunnel. PIM Register-Stop messages are sent directly (NOT through tunnel)

RP is single point of failure and therefore redundancy is an operational requirement MSDP-Anycast-RP is not possible: no MSDP for IPv6
RP Redundancy Mechanisms
BSR provides RP redundancy

Slower convergence than MSDP-anycast-RP Active protocol operations required in all routers
Prefixlength-Anycast-RP (aka PriorityCast-RP)

2 (or more) RPs with same IPv6 address, but different masks PIM Registers and (*,G) Joins forwarded to RP with longest-prefix match Slower convergence due to periodic register messages Topology considerations (RP-on-a-stick)
PIM-Anycast-RP (RFC 4610)

Basically Anycast-RP without MSDP through extending the PIM Register mechanism Implementation being planned

SSM
PIM, Topology Table, MRIB, MFIB all apply to SSM, of course without (*,G) state and RPs. PIM SSM is just a subset of PIM SM.
Only required configuration ipv6 multicast-routing

Requires MLDv2 on the receiver side SSM transition through SSM Mapping for MLDv1 messages static or DNS
When MLDv2 is not available on the endpoint
SSM Mapping will map MLDv1 Reports to a multicast source

This mapping can be done statically or though DNS

Inter Domain IPv6 Multicast

Problem: how to allow receivers to discover sources? Remember: there is no Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP) which (in IPv4 multicast) provides Source Active announcements between RPs Option 1: SSM
Straightforward
Clients require MLDv2 capability / use SSM Mapping
Option 2: ASM with single shared RP between multicast domains

Not practical, requires co-ordination between multicast domains
Option 3: ASM with Embedded RP

Straightforward Requires all routers in the path to support Embedded RP mechanism

Multicast Data Forwarding

Multicast Forwarding Information Base (MFIB)

MFIB is like FIB (CEF) for unicast MFIB maintains next-hop address information based on the information in the MRIB Can be distributed (dMFIB) to forward multicast IPv6 packets on distributed platforms (e.g. 7600, GSR, CRS-1)
Implemented in hardware on hardware based forwarding platforms (e.g. 7600, GSR, CRS-1)
MFIB is automatically enabled with ipv6 multicast-routing Note: the exact output of the following commands may vary by hardware platform
