Usage Information
By default, when you enable PIM-SM snooping, a switch oods all multicast trac to the PIM designated router
(DR), including unnecessary multicast packets. To minimize the trac sent over the network to the designated
router, you can disable designated-router flooding.
When designated-router ooding is disabled, PIM-SM snooping only forwards the multicast trac, which belongs
to a multicast group for which the switch receives a join request, on the port connected towards the designated
router.
If the PIM DR ood is not disabled (default setting):
• Multicast trac is transmitted on the egress port towards the PIM DR if the port is not the incoming interface.
• Multicast trac for an unknown group is sent on the port towards the PIM DR. When DR ooding is disabled,
multicast trac for an unknown group is dropped.
