The table below describes the parameters necessary for PIM-DM configuration.
Configure these parameters for PIM-DM interfaces:
Interface Name
Allows the entry of the name of the IP interface for which PIM-DM is to
be configured. This must be a previously defined IP interface.
IP Address
Displays the IP address for the IP interface named above.
Hello Interval <30>
This field allows an entry of between 0 and 18724 seconds and determines
the interval between sending Hello packets to other routers on the net-
work. The default is 30 seconds.
Join/Prune Interval <60 > This field allows an entry of between 0 and 18724 seconds. This interval
also determines the time interval the router uses 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 default is 60 seconds.
State <Disabled>
This field can be toggled between Enabled and Disabled using the pull-
down menu, and is used to enable or disable PIM-DM for the IP interface.
The default is Disabled.
