IPv6 Source Specific Multicast MappingLast Updated: July 17, 2012
Source-specific multicast (SSM) SSM mapping for IPv6 supports both static and dynamic Domain Name System (DNS) mapping for MLD version 1 receivers. This feature allows deployment of IPv6 SSM with hosts that are incapable of providing MLD version 2 support in their TCP/IP host stack and their IP multicast receiving application. Finding Feature InformationYour software release may not support all the features documented in this module. For the latest caveats and feature information, see Bug Search Tool and the release notes for your platform and software release. To find information about the features documented in this module, and to see a list of the releases in which each feature is supported, see the feature information table at the end of this module. Use Cisco Feature Navigator to find information about platform support and Cisco software image support. To access Cisco Feature Navigator, go to www.cisco.com/go/cfn.

Information About IPv6 Source Specific Multicast MappingSSM mapping for IPv6 supports both static and dynamic Domain Name System (DNS) mapping for MLD version 1 receivers. This feature allows deployment of IPv6 SSM with hosts that are incapable of providing MLD version 2 support in their TCP/IP host stack and their IP multicast receiving application. SSM mapping allows the device to look up the source of a multicast MLD version 1 report either in the running configuration of the device or from a DNS server. The device can then initiate an (S, G) join toward the source. How to Configure IPv6 Source Specific Multicast MappingConfiguring IPv6 SSMWhen the SSM mapping feature is enabled, DNS-based SSM mapping is automatically enabled, which means that the device will look up the source of a multicast MLD version 1 report from a DNS server. You can configure either DNS-based or static SSM mapping, depending on your device configuration. If you choose to use static SSM mapping, you can configure multiple static SSM mappings. If multiple static SSM mappings are configured, the source addresses of all matching access lists will be used. Before You Begin
