config pim
Purpose
Used to configure the parameters for the PIM protocol.
Syntax
config pim [[ipif <ipif_name 12> | all] {hello <sec 1-18724> | jp_interval <sec 1-18724> |
state [enable | disable] | mode [dm | sm| sm-dm] | dr_priority <unit 0 – 4294967294>} |
register_probe_time <value 1-127> | register_suppression_time <value 3-255>]
Description
This command will configure the general settings for the PIM protocol per IP interface, including
choice of PIM mode, Designated Router priority and various timers.
Parameters
ipif <ipif_name 12>
−
Enter an IP interface for which to configure the PIM settings. This name
cannot exceed 12 alphanumeric characters.
all
– Select this parameter to configure PIM settings for all IP interfaces on the Switch.
hello <sec 1-18724>
−
Used to set the interval time between the sending of Hello Packets from
this IP interface to neighboring routers one hop away. These Hello packets are used to discover
other PIM enabled routers and state their priority as the Designated Router (DR) on the PIM
enabled network. The user may state an interval time between
1
and
18724
seconds with a
default interval time of
30
seconds.
jp_interval <sec 1-18724>
−
This field will set the interval time between the sending of Join/Prune
packets stating which multicast groups are to join the PIM enabled network and which are to be
removed or “pruned” from that group. The user may state an interval time between
1
and
18724
seconds with a default interval time of
60
seconds.
state [enable | disable]
−
Used to enable or disable PIM for this IP interface. The default is
Disabled.
mode [dm | sm |sm-dm]
−
Used to select the type of PIM protocol to use, Sparse Mode (SM),
Dense Mode (DM), or Spare-Dense Mode (SM-DM). The default setting is DM.
dr_priority <unsigned_int 0 – 4294967294>
−
Enter the priority of this IP interface to become the
Designated Router for the multiple access network. The user may enter a DR priority between
0
and
4,294,967,294
with a default setting of
1
.
register_probe_time <value 1-127>
−
Configure this field to set a time to send a probe message
from the DR to the RP before the Register Suppression time expires. The user may configure a
time between
1
and
127
seconds with a default setting of
5
seconds.
register_suppression_ time <value 3-255>
−
The user may set an interval time between
3
and
255
with a default setting of
60
seconds for the sending of register suppression time packets.
Restrictions
Only Administrator and Operator-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To configure the PIM settings for an IP interface:
DGS-3627:admin# config pim ipif Zira hello 60 jp_interval 60 state enable mode sm
Command: config pim ipif Zira hello 60 jp_interval 60 state enable mode sm
Success.
DGS-3627:admin#
NOTE:
If not, the configure value can apply to protocol, and the administrator will be presented
with a prompt message.
NOTE:
The administrator should ensure the Register Probe time vaule less than the half of the
Register Suppression time value.
