Previously the SPTbit on a PIM device was not set under the following conditions:

when the PIM neighbor was not the RPF (Reverse Path Forwarding) neighbor

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

to the Source; that is, it did not have a direct connection to the Source traffic

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

stream.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In this situation, the SPTbit remained unset. This resulted in the non-RP PIM

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

device continually sending register messages awaiting a register STOP.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved. Non-RP PIM devices no longer continually send

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

register messages.

RFC 1141 but not to RFC 1624. For switches, note that this issue did not affect

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

IP hardware routing, only packets routed by the CPU.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved. Checksums are now calculated in accordance with

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

RFC 1624.

This issue only occurred if the existing interface route and the modified prefix had
