IPv6 PIM Sparse

TABLE 32 Output from the show ipv6 pim sparse command
Field Description
Global PIM Sparse mode settings
Hello interval How frequently the device sends IPv6 PIM Sparse hello messages to its
IPv6 PIM Sparse neighbors. This field shows the number of seconds
between hello messages. IPv6 PIM Sparse routers use hello messages to
discover one another.
Neighbor timeout How many seconds the device will wait for a hello message from a neighbor
before determining that the neighbor is no longer present and removing
cached IPv6 PIM Sparse forwarding entries for the neighbor.
Bootstrap Msg interval How frequently the BSR configured on the device sends the RP set to the
RPs within the IPv6 PIM Sparse domain. The RP set is a list of candidate
RPs and their group prefixes. The group prefix of a candidate RP indicates
the range of IPv6 PIM Sparse group numbers for which it can be an RP.
NOTE: This field contains a value only if an interface on the device is
elected to be the BSR. Otherwise, the field is blank.
Candidate-RP Advertisement interval How frequently the candidate PR configured on the device sends candidate
RP advertisement messages to the BSR.
NOTE: This field contains a value only if an interface on the device is
configured as a candidate RP. Otherwise, the field is blank.
Join or Prune interval How frequently the device sends IPv6 PIM Sparse Join or Prune messages
for the multicast groups it is forwarding. This field shows the number of
seconds between Join or Prune messages.
The device sends Join or Prune messages on behalf of multicast receivers
that want to join or leave an IPv6 PIM Sparse group. When forwarding
packets from IPv6 PIM Sparse sources, the device sends the packets only
on the interfaces on which it has received join requests in Join or Prune
messages for the source group.
SPT Threshold The number of packets the device sends using the path through the RP
before switching to using the SPT path.
Inactivity Interval How long a forwarding entry can remain unused before the router
deletes it.
SSM Enabled If yes, source-specific multicast is configured globally on this router.
IPv6 PIM Sparse interface information
NOTE: You also can display IPv6 multicast interface information using the show ipv6 pim interface command.
Interface The type of interface and the interface number. The interface type can be
one of the following:
•
Ethernet
•
VE
The number is either a port number (and slot number if applicable) or the
virtual interface (VE) number.
TTL Threshold Following the TTL threshold value, the interface state is listed. The
interface state can be one of the following:
•
Disabled
•
Enabled
Local Address Indicates the IP address configured on the port or virtual interface.
