Description
Enables PIM on one or more IP interfaces.

Dense.
Usage Guidelines
When an IP interface is created, per-interface PIM configuration is disabled by default.
On the “i” Series of Switches.
The switch supports both dense mode and sparse mode operation.
You can configure dense mode or sparse mode on a per-interface basis. After they are enabled, some
interfaces can run dense mode, while others run sparse mode.
On the “e” Series of Switches. The switch supports edge mode operation. You can configure
spare-mode on a per-interface basis.If you specify passive, the interface does not act as a neighbor with
another PIM router or switch. Typically all non-passive interfaces align with USPF non-passive
interfaces. A maximum of 2 non-passive PIM interfaces is allowed on the “
e ” series.
