Each command is listed, in detail, in the following sections.
config pim
Purpose
Used to configure PIM settings for the Switch or for specified IP
interfaces.
Syntax
config pim [[ipif <ipif_name 12> | all] {hello <sec 1-18724> |
jp_interval <sec 1-18724> | state [enable | disable]}]
Description The
config pim
command is used to configure PIM settings and enable
or disable PIM settings for specified IP interfaces. PIM must also be
globally enabled to function (see
enable pim
).
Parameters
ipif <ipif_name 12>
– Name assigned to the specific IP interface being
configured for PIM settings.
all
– Used to configure PIM settings for all IP interfaces.
hello <sec 1-18724>
- The time, in seconds, between issuing hello
packets to find neighboring routers.
jp_interval <sec 1-18724>
– The join/prune interval is the time value
(seconds) between transmitting (flooding to all interfaces) multicast
messages to downstream routers, and automatically ‘pruning’ a branch
from the multicast delivery tree. The
jp_interval
is also the interval used
by the router to automatically remove prune information from a branch
of a multicast delivery tree and begin to flood multicast messages to all
branches of that delivery tree. These two actions are equivalent. The
range is between 1 and 18724 seconds. The default is 60 seconds.
state [enable | disable]
– This can enable or disable PIM for the
specified IP interface. The default is disabled. Note that PIM settings
must also be enabled globally for the Switch with the enable pim
described below for PIM to operate on any configured IP interfaces.
Restrictions Only
administrator-level users can issue this command.
Usage example:
To configure PIM settings for IP interface “System”:
DGS-3612G:4#config pim ipif System hello 35 jp_interval 70 state enable
Command: config pim ipif System hello 35 jp_interval 70 state enable
Success.
