• PIM in Source Specific Multicast (PIM-SSM). PIM-SSM protocol is based on the source specific
model for forwarding Multicast traffic across multiple domains on the Internet. It is restricted to
shortest path trees (SPTs) to specific sources described by hosts using MLD. PIM-SSM is essentially a
subset of PIM-SM protocol, which has the capability to join SPTs. The only difference being register
states and shared tree states for Multicast groups in SSM range are not maintained. End-hosts use
MLD to register their interest in a particular source-group (S,G) pair. PIM-SSM protocol interacts with
MLD to construct the multicast forwarding tree rooted at the source S.
Refer to
FTOS Command Line Interface Reference document chapters Multicast IPv6, and Protocol
Independent Multicast (IPv6) for configuration details.
SSH over an IPv6 Transport
IPv6 SSH is supported on platforms c e s
FTOS supports both inbound and outbound SSH sessions using IPv6 addressing. Inbound SSH supports
accessing the system through the management interface as well as through a physical Layer 3 interface.
Refer to the
Security Commands chapter in the FTOS Command Line Interface Reference document for SSH
configuration details.
