Carry out the
display pim neighbor
command to view the PIM neighboring
relationships among the switches. For example:
# View the PIM neighboring relationships on Switch D.
[SwitchD] display pim neighbor

Assume that Host A needs to receive the information addressed to a multicast group G
(225.1.1.1/24). After multicast source S (10.110.5.100/24) sends multicast packets to
the multicast group G, an SPT is established through traffic flooding. Switches on the
SPT path (Switch A and Switch D) have their (S, G) entries. Host A registers with Switch
A, and a (*, G) entry is generated on Switch A. You can use the
display pim
routing-table
command to view the PIM routing table information on each switch. For
example:
# View the PIM routing table information on Switch A.
[SwitchA] display pim routing-table
