Enabling BFD for PIM

PIM uses hello messages to elect a DR for a shared-media network. The elected DR is the only multicast
forwarder on the shared-media network.
If the DR fails, a new DR election process will start after the DR ages out. However, it might take a long

period of time before other routers detect the link failures and trigger a new DR election. To start a new

DR election process immediately after the original DR fails, enable BFD for PIM on a shared-media
network to detect failures of the links among PIM neighbors.
You must enable BFD for PIM on all PIM-capable routers on a shared-media network, so that the PIM

neighbors can fast detect DR failures and start a new DR election process. For more information about

BFD, see High Availability Configuration Guide.
Before you configure this feature on an interface, be sure to enable PIM-DM or PIM-SM on the interface.
