PIM snooping for IPv4 and IPv6 are supported in an EVPN-EVPN-VXLAN VPLS or R-VPLS service (with the R-VPLS attached to a VPRN or IES service). The snooping operation is similar to that within a VPLS service (see PIM snooping for VPLS) and supports both PIM snooping and PIM proxy modes.
PIM snooping for IPv4 is enabled using the configure service vpls pim-snooping command.
PIM snooping for IPv6 is enabled using the configure service vpls pim-snooping no ipv6-multicast-disable command.
When using PIM snooping for IPv6, the default forwarding is MAC-based with optional support for SG-based (see IPv6 multicast forwarding). SG-based forwarding requires FP3- or higher-based hardware.
It is not possible to configure max-num-groups for VXLAN bindings.
