Add IPv6 PIM-SSM groups While PIM employs a specially configured rendezvous point (RP) router that serves as a meeting junction for multicast senders and listeners, PIM Single-Source Multicast (PIM-SSM) does not use a rendezvous point (RP). PIM-SSM supports source route delivery trees only. It is used between routers (including switch router interfaces) so that they can track which multicast packets to forward to each other and to their directly connected LANs. You can implement PIM-SSM with a strict subset of the PIM protocol mechanisms. Both regular IPv6 multicast and SSM can coexist on a single router, and both can be implemented using the PIM protocol. A range of multicast addresses, FF3x::/32 for IPv6, is reserved for SSM. To add an IPv6 PIM-SSM group: 1. Launch a web browser. 2. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch. The login page displays. 3. Click the Main UI Login button. The main UI login page displays in a new tab. 4.
