new generation ID. If a PIM router finds that the generation ID in a hello message from
the upstream router has changed, it assumes that the status of the upstream neighbor
is lost or the upstream neighbor has changed. In this case, it triggers a join message for
state update.
If you disable join suppression (namely, enable neighbor tracking), the upstream router
will explicitly track which downstream routers are joined to it. The join suppression
feature should be enabled or disabled on all PIM routers on the same subnet.
