messages) are sent towards the RP and data is sent from senders to the RP so receivers can discover who are the senders
and begin receiving traffic destined to the multicast group.
For more information, refer to the Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP), Multicast IPv6, and Protocol Independent Multicast
(IPv6) chapters in the Dell Networking OS Command Line Interface Reference Guide.
Configuration Task List for IPv6
The following are configuration tasks for the IPv6 protocol.
Adjusting Your CAM-Profile
Assigning an IPv6 Address to an Interface
Assigning a Static IPv6 Route
Configuring Telnet with IPv6
SNMP over IPv6
Showing IPv6 Information
Clearing IPv6 Routes
Adjusting Your CAM-Profile
Dell Networking OS supports the cam-acl command.
Although adjusting your CAM-profile is not a mandatory step, if you plan to implement IPv6 ACLs, adjust your CAM settings.
The CAM space is allotted in FP blocks. The total space allocated must equal 13 FP blocks. There are 16 FP blocks, but the
System Flow requires three blocks that cannot be reallocated.
You must enter the ipv6acl allocation as a factor of 2 (2, 4, 6, 8, 10). All other profile allocations can use either even or
odd-numbered ranges.
The default option sets the CAM Profile as follows:
L3 ACL (ipv4acl): 6
L2 ACL(l2acl): 5
IPv6 L3 ACL (ipv6acl): 0
L3 QoS (ipv4qos): 1
L2 QoS (l2qos): 1
To have the changes take effect, save the new CAM settings to the startup-config (write-mem or copy run start) then
reload the system for the new settings.
Allocate space for IPV6 ACLs. Enter the CAM profile name then the allocated amount.
CONFIGURATION mode
cam-acl { ipv6acl }
When not selecting the default option, enter all of the profiles listed and a range for each.
The total space allocated must equal 13.
The ipv6acl range must be a factor of 2.
Show the current CAM settings.
EXEC mode or EXEC Privilege mode
show cam-acl
Provides information on FP groups allocated for the egress acl.
CONFIGURATION mode
show cam-acl-egress
Allocate at least one group for L2ACL and IPv4 ACL.
The total number of groups is 4.
