described below.
PIM Component Table
This table contains fields specific to a PIM
domain. One row exists for each domain to which
the router is connected. A PIM-SM domain is
defined as an area of the network over which
Bootstrap messages are forwarded. Typically, a
PIM-SM router will be a member of exactly one
domain. This table also supports, however,
routers which may form a border between two
PIM-SM domains and do not forward Bootstrap
messages between them. Double-clicking any
entry in this table opens the PIM Component
Table Entry view, which displays information for
and allows configuration of that entry. This table
contains the following information.
Index
A number uniquely identifying the component.
Each protocol instance connected to a separate
domain should have a different index value.
Routers that only support membership in a single
PIM-SM domain should use an Index value of 1.
