28.2.5 Configuring the Filtering of Multicast Source/Group
You can set to filter the source (and group) address of multicast data packets via this
command. When this feature is configured, the router filters not only multicast data, but
the multicast data encapsulated in the registration packets.
Perform the following configuration in the PIM view.
Table 28-4
Configuring the filtering of multicast source/group
Operation
Command
Configure the filtering of multicast source/group
source-policy acl-number
Remove the configuration of filtering
undo source-policy
If resource address filtering is configured, as well as basic ACLs, then the router filters
the resource addresses of all multicast data packets received. Those not matched will
be discarded.
If resource address filtering is configured, as well as advanced ACLs, then the router
filters the resource and group addresses of all multicast data packets received. Those
not matched will be discarded.
28.2.6 Configuring the Filtering of PIM Neighbor
You can configure basic ACLs to filter the routers which can be PIM neighbors of the
current interface.
Perform the following configuration in the VLAN interface view.

28.2.7 Configuring the Maximum Number of PIM Neighbor on an Interface
The maximum number of PIM neighbors of a router interface can be configured to
avoid exhausting the memory of the router or router faults. The maximum number of
PIM neighbors of a router is defined by the system, and is not open for modification.
Perform the following configuration in the VLAN interface view.
