Configuration prerequisites
Before you configure PIM-DM, complete the following tasks:
• Configure any unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain are interoperable at the
network layer.
• Determine the interval for sending state-refresh messages.
• Determine the minimum time to wait before receiving a new refresh message.
• Determine the TTL value of state-refresh messages.
• Determine the graft retry period.
Enabling PIM-DM
When PIM-DM is enabled, a router sends hello messages periodically to discover PIM neighbors and
processes messages from the PIM neighbors. When you deploy a PIM-DM domain, enable PIM-DM on
all non-border interfaces of the routers.
PIM-DM does not work with multicast groups in the SSM group range.
IMPORTANT:
A
ll the interfaces on a device must operate in the same PIM mode.
