PIM Neighbor Filters

The G8124 accepts connection to up to 72 PIM interfaces. By default, the switch accepts all PIM neighbors attached to the PIM-enabled interfaces, up to the maximum number. Once the maximum is reached, the switch will deny further PIM neighbors.

To ensure that only the appropriate PIM neighbors are accepted by the switch, the administrator can use PIM neighbor filters to specify which PIM neighbors may be accepted or denied on a per-interface basis.

To turn PIM neighbor filtering on or off for a particular IP interface, use the following commands:

RS G8124(config)# interface ip <Interface number>

RS G8124(config-ip-if)# [no] ip pim neighbor-filter

When filtering is enabled, all PIM neighbor requests on the specified IP interface will be denied by default. To allow a specific PIM neighbor, use the following command:

RS G8124(config-ip-if)#ip pim neighbor-addr <neighbor IPv4 address> allow

To remove a PIM neighbor from the accepted list, use the following command.

RS G8124(config-ip-if)# ip pim neighbor-addr<neighbor IPv4 address> deny RS G8124(config-ip-if)# exit

You can view configured PIM neighbor filters globally or for a specific IP interface using the following commands:

RS G8124(config)# show ip pim neighbor-filters

RS G8124(config)# show ip pim interface <Interface number> neighbor-filters
