This command sets the join/prune timer. Use the no form to restore the
default setting.

Interface Configuration (VLAN)
C OMMAND U SAGE
◆ By default, the switch sends join/prune messages every 210 seconds to
inform other PIM-SM routers about clients who want to join or leave a
multicast group.
◆ Use the same join/prune message interval on all the PIM-SM routers in
the same PIM-SM domain, otherwise the routing protocol’s performance
will be adversely affected.
◆ The multicast interface that first receives a multicast stream from a
particular source forwards this traffic only to those interfaces on the
router that have requested to join this group. When there are no longer
any requesting groups on that interface, the leaf node sends a prune
message upstream and enters a prune state for this multicast stream.
The protocol maintains both the current join state and the pending
Reverse Path Tree (RPT) prune state for this (source, group) pair until
the join/prune-interval timer expires.
E XAMPLE
This example sets the priority used in the bidding process for the DR.
