Each command is listed, in detail, in the following sections:
config pim
Purpose Used to configure PIM settings for the Switch or for specified IP interfaces.
Syntax config pim [ipif <ipif_name 12> | all ] { hello <sec 1-18724> | jp_interval <sec 1-18724> |
state [enable | disable]}
Description The config pim command is used to configure PIM settings and enable or disable PIM settings for specified IP
interfaces. PIM must also be globally enabled to function (see enable pim).
Parameters ipif <ipif_name 12> – Name assigned to the specific IP interface being configured for PIM settings.
all – Used to configure PIM settings for all IP interfaces.
hello <sec 1-18724> – The time, in seconds, between issuing hello packets to find neighboring routers.
jp_interval <sec 1-18724> – The join/prune interval is the time value (seconds) between transmitting (flooding
to all interfaces) multicast messages to downstream routers, and automatically ‘pruning’ a branch from the
multicast delivery tree.The jp_interval is also the interval used by the router to automatically remove prune
information from a branch of a multicast delivery tree and begin to flood multicast messages to all branches of
that delivery tree.These two actions are equivalent.The range is between 1 and 18724 seconds.The default is
60 seconds.
state [enable | disable] – This can enable or disable PIM for the specified IP interface.The default is disabled.
Note that PIM settings must also be enabled globally for the Switch with the enable pim described below for
PIM to operate on any configured IP interfaces.
Restrictions Only administrator-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To configure PIM settings for IP interface “System”:
AT-9724TS:4# config pim ipif System hello 35 jp_interval 70
state enable
Command: config pim ipif System hello 35 jp_interval 70
state enable
