ip pim spt-threshold
This command prevents the last-hop PIM router from switching to Shortest
Path Source Tree (SPT) mode. Use the
no
form to allow the router to
switch over to SPT mode.

group-address
- An IP multicast group address. If a group address
is not specified, the command applies to all multicast groups.
mask
- Subnet mask that is used for the group address.

◆
The default path for packets from a multicast source to a receiver is
through the RP. However, the path through the RP is not always the
shortest path. Therefore, the router uses the RP to forward only the
first packet from a new multicast group to its receivers. Afterwards, it
calculates the shortest path tree (SPT) directly between the receiver
and source, and then uses the SPT to send all subsequent packets from
the source to the receiver instead of using the shared tree. Note that
when the SPT threshold is not set by this command, the PIM leaf router
will join the shortest path tree immediately after receiving the first
packet from a new source.
◆
This command forces the router to use the shared tree for all multicast
groups, or just for the specified multicast groups.
◆
Only one entry is allowed for this command.
