(Defaults:
propagation-delay
= 500 milliseconds;
override-interval
= 2500 milliseconds)
Neighbor timeout
Syntax:
ip pim-sparse nbr-timeout [60-65536]
Changing the DR priority
Syntax:
ip pim-sparse dr-priority [0-4294967295]
This command changes the router priority for the DR election process in the current VLAN. A numerically higher
value means a higher priority. If the highest priority is shared by multiple routers in the same VLAN, the router with
the highest IP address is selected as the DR.
A 0 (zero) value disables DR operation for the router on the current VLAN.
(Range: 0 - 2147483647; Default: 1)
Configuring PIM-SM support in a VLAN context
PIM-SM support must be configured in each VLAN where you want PIM-SM forwarding of multicast traffic. This
illustrates the following per-VLAN configuration steps:
• Enabling PIM-SM on VLAN 120 and allowing the default
any
option to select a source IP address for PIM-SM
packets forwarded from this VLAN. (Because the VLAN in this example is configured with only one IP address
—120-10.10.2—it is this address that will be used for the source.)
• Increasing the DR priority on this VLAN from the default 1 to 100.
• Leaving the other per-VLAN PIM-SM fields in their default settings.
