PIM-SM (Sparse Mode)
Configuring PIM-SM on the Router
Router PIM Context Commands for Configuring PIM­
SM Operation
This section describes the commands used in the Router PIM context to:
■ enable or disable SNMP trap status for PIM events (default: disabled)
■ configure candidate Bootstrap Router (BSR) operation
■ configure candidate Rendezvous Point (RP) operation or the (optional)
static Rendezvous Point (RP) operation
N o t e Before configuring BSR, RP, and SNMP trap operation for PIM-SM, it is
necessary to enable PIM-SM on at least one VLAN on the router.
Configuring a BSR Candidate
Select the VLAN Interface To Advertise as a BSR Candidate.
Syntax: [no] bsr-candidate source-ip-vlan < vid >
[no] router pim bsr-candidate source-ip-vlan < vid >
Configures the router to advertise itself as a candidate PIM­
SM Bootstrap Router (BSR) on the VLAN interface specified
by
source-ip-vlan < vid >, and enables BSR candidate operation.
This makes the router eligible to be elected as the BSR for the
PIM-SM domain in which it operates. Note that one BSR
candidate VLAN interface is allowed per-router. The
no form
of the command deletes the BSR source IP VLAN configuration
and also disables the router from being a BSR candidate if this
option has been enabled. (See the
bsr-candidate command,
below.)
Enable or Disable BSR Candidate Operation on a Router.
Syntax: [no] bsr-candidate
[no] router pim bsr-candidate
Disables or re-enables the router for advertising itself as a
Candidate-BSR on the VLAN interface specified by
source-ip­
vlan < vid >. This command is used to disable and re-enable BSR
candidate operation after the
bsr-candidate source-ip-vlan < vid
> command has been used to enable C-BSR operation on the
router. (That is, this command operates only after the BSR
source-ip-VLAN ID has been configured.)
(Default: Disabled.)
