IP2000 Configuration Guide
PIM-SM v2 Configuration
Overview of PIM-SM configuration
remote-address
IP address of the remote device, which can include a
subnet specification. If it does not include a subnet
mask, the router software in the Stinger unit assumes a
default subnet mask that is based on address class.
local-address
IP address assigned to the local side of a numbered-
interface connection. This is a requirement for PIM-
enabled trunk interfaces.
multicast-allowed
Must be set to
yes
for PIM-enabled interfaces.
enable
Enables or disables the PIM routing protocol on the
interface.
hello-interval
Number of seconds between sending hello messages to
PIM neighbors on this interface. The valid range is from
1 to 65535 with a default value of 30 seconds. The
value must be less than that of the
hello-holdtime
parameter.
hello-holdtime
Number of seconds a receiver of hello messages must
consider the sender reachable before timing out the
sender. The valid range is from 1 to 65535 with a
default value of 105 seconds. The value must be greater
than that of the
hello-interval
parameter.
hello-priority-option
Whether the Stinger unit will participate in DR election
on this interface (
yes
or
no
, with a default value of
yes
).
hello-priority
DR election priority for the Stinger unit on the trunk
interface. The DR election priority is a 32-bit unsigned
number contained in a hello message. A router with a
numerically larger priority is preferred in electing a new
DR. The valid range for this setting is from 0 to
4,294,967,295, with a default setting of 1.
join-prune-interval
Number of seconds between sending PIM join/prune
messages to PIM neighbors on this interface. A
join/prune message consists of a list of groups and a list
of joined and pruned sources for each group. The valid
range is from 1 to 65535 with a default value of 60
seconds. The value must be less than that of the
join-
prune-holdtime
parameter.
Note
Stinger units do not currently support the (S,G)
state, so it always sends (*,G) join/prune messages.
join-prune-holdtime
Number of seconds a receiver of join/prune messages
must consider the list valid before timing out the
information. The valid range is from 1 to 65535 with a
default value of 210 seconds. The value must be greater
than that of the
join-prune-interval
parameter.
