Verifying Keepalive Period
To view the configured keepalive period, use the
show ip pim sparse
command. For example:
-> show ipv6 pim sparse
Status = enabled,
Keepalive Period = 210,
Max RPs = 32,
Probe Time = 5,
Register Suppress Timeout = 60,
RP Switchover = enabled,
SPT Status = enabled,
You can also use the
show ip pim dense
,
show ipv6 pim sparse
, and
show ipv6 pim dense
commands to
view the configured keepalive period.
Configuring Notification Period
The switch can be configured for a minimum time interval that must elapse between various notifications,
such as neighbor loss notification, invalid register notification, invalid joinprune notification, RP mapping
notification, and interface election notification. For example:
To set the time that must elapse between PIM neighbor loss notifications originated by the router, enter
ip
pim neighbor-loss-notification-period
followed by the time in seconds. For example, to set the time
period of 10 seconds, enter:
-> ip pim neighbor-loss-notification-period 10
To set the time that must elapse between PIM invalid register notifications originated by the router, enter
ip pim invalid-register-notification-period
followed by the time in seconds. For example, to set the time
period of 100 seconds, enter:
-> ip pim invalid-register-notification-period 100
To set the time that must elapse between PIM invalid joinprune notifications originated by the router,
enter
ip pim invalid-joinprune-notification-period
followed by the time.For example, to set the time
period of 100 seconds, enter:
-> ip pim invalid-joinprune-notification-period 100
To set the time that must elapse between PIM RP mapping notifications originated by the router, enter
ip
pim rp-mapping-notification-period
followed by the time in seconds.For example, to set the time period
of 100 seconds, enter:
-> ip pim rp-mapping-notification-period 100
To set the time that must elapse between PIM interface election notifications originated by the router,
enter
ip pim interface-election-notification-period
followed by the time in seconds. For example, to set
the time period of 100 seconds, enter:
-> ip pim interface-election-notification-period 100
Note.
The values configured by the above commands are common for PIM in the IPv4 as well as IPv6
environments.
