Displaying PIM traffic statistics
To display PIM traffic statistics, use the following CLI method.
forward port The port through which the Layer 3 Switch reaches the source.
Count The number of packets forwarded using this cache entry.
Sparse Mode Indicates whether the cache entry is for regular PIM (dense mode) or PIM Sparse. This flag
can have one of the following values:
0 – The entry is not for PIM Sparse (and is therefore for the dense mode of PIM).
1– The entry is for PIM Sparse.
RPT Indicates whether the cache entry uses the RP path or the SPT path. The RPT flag can have
one of the following values:
0 – The SPT path is used instead of the RP path.
1– The RP path is used instead of the SPT path.
NOTE: The values of the RP and SPT flags are always opposite (one is set to 0 and the
other is set to 1).
SPT Indicates whether the cache entry uses the RP path or the SPT path. The SP flag can have
one of the following values:
0 – The RP path is used instead of the SPT path.
1– The SPT path is used instead of the RP path.
NOTE: The values of the RP and SPT flags are always opposite (one is set to 0 and the
other is set to 1).
Register Suppress Indicates whether the Register Suppress timer is running. This field can have one of the
following values:
0 – The timer is not running.
1 – The timer is running.
member ports Indicates the Layer 3 Switch physical ports to which the receivers for the source and group
are attached. The receivers can be directly attached or indirectly attached through other
PIM Sparse routers.
virtual ports Indicates the virtual interfaces to which the receivers for the source and group are
attached. The receivers can be directly attached or indirectly attached through other PIM
Sparse routers.
prune ports Indicates the physical ports on which the Layer 3 Switch has received a prune notification
(in a Join/Prune message) to remove the receiver from the list of recipients for the group.
virtual prune ports Indicates the virtual interfaces ports on which the Layer 3 Switch has received a prune
notification (in a Join/Prune message) to remove the receiver from the list of recipients for
the group.
