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 BSR operation

• Configure C-RP operation or the (optional) static RP operation

NOTE: 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

Selecting 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 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.)

Enabling or disabling a BSR Candidate

Enable or disable BSR candidate operation on a router.

Syntax:

[no] bsr-candidate
