Figure 84. Multicast With PIM Snooping
PIM snooping does not require PIM to be enabled. However, IGMP snooping must be
disabled on VLANs that use PIM snooping. PIM snooping and MVR cannot be enabled on
the same VLAN.
To enable PIM snooping on one or all VLANs, use the following command:
enable pim snooping {{vlan} <name>}
To disable PIM snooping on one or all VLANs, use the following command:
disable pim snooping {{vlan} <name>}
Note: PIM snooping can be enabled only between PIM SM enabled
switches. It should not enabled between PIM DM enabled switches.
