Configuring Join/Prune Message Sizes
A larger join/prune message size will result in loss of a larger amount of information when a message is
lost; with a reduced join/message size, the loss of a single message will bring relatively minor impact.
By controlling the maximum number of (S, G) entries in a join/prune message, you can effectively
reduce the number of (S, G) entries sent per unit of time.
Follow these steps to configure join/prune message sizes:
