Configuring Multicast Nonstop Forwarding
This task configures the nonstop forwarding (NSF) feature for multicast packet forwarding for the purpose
of alleviating network failures, or software upgrades and downgrades.
Although we strongly recommend that you use the NSF lifetime default values, the optional
Step 3, on page

through
Step 6, on page 100
allow you to modify the NSF timeout values for Protocol Independent Multicast
(PIM) and Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) or Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD). Use these
commands when PIM and IGMP (or MLD) are configured with nondefault interval or query intervals for join
and prune operations.
Generally, configure the IGMP NSF and PIM NSF lifetime values to equal or exceed the query or join query
interval. For example, if you set the IGMP query interval to 120 seconds, set the IGMP NSF lifetime to 120
seconds (or greater).
If the Cisco IOS XR Software control plane does not converge and reconnect after NSF is enabled on your
router, multicast packet forwarding continues for up to 15 minutes, then packet forwarding stops.
Before You Begin
For NSF to operate in your multicast network, you must also enable NSF for the unicast protocols (such as
IS-IS, OSPF, and BGP) that PIM relies on for Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF) information. See the appropriate
configuration modules to learn how to configure NSF for unicast protocols.
