ip pim pre-build-spt command. To reset to the
default, use the no form of this command.

Usage Guidelines
To prebuild the SPT for all known (S,G)s in the routing table by triggering PIM joins upstream, even in
the absence of any receivers, use the
ip pim pre-build-spt command.
By default, PIM (S,G) joins are triggered upstream only if the OIF-list for the (S,G) is not empty. It is
useful in certain scenarios—for example, on the virtual port-channel (vPC) nonforwarding router—to
prebuild the SPTs and maintain the (S,G) states even when the system is not forwarding on these routes.
Prebuilding the SPT ensures faster convergence when a vPC failover occurs.
When you are running virtual port channels (vPCs), enabling this feature causes both vPC peer switches
to join the SPT, even though only one vPC peer switch actually routes the multicast traffic into the vPC
domain. This behavior results in the multicast traffic passing over two parallel paths from the source to
the vPC switch pair, consuming bandwidth on both paths. Additionally, when both vPC peer switches
join the SPT, one or more upstream devices in the network may be required to perform additional
multicast replications to deliver the traffic on both parallel paths toward the receivers in the vPC domain.
This command requires the LAN Base Services license.
Examples
This example shows how to prebuild the SPT in the absence of receivers:
switch(config)# vrf context Enterprise
switch(config-vrf)# ip pim pre-build-spt
switch(config-vrf)#
