Configuring IP Multicast 715
sends the data down the shared tree to the receivers. Shared trees centered on a RP do not necessarily
provide the shortest/optimal path. In such cases, PIM-SM provides a means to switch to more efficient
source-specific trees.
The PIM-SM menu page contains links to web pages that define and display PIM-SM parameters and
data. To display this page, click IP Multicast > PIM-SM in the tree view.
Following are the web pages accessible from this menu page:
• PIM-SM Global Configuration
• PIM-SM Global Status
• PIM-SM Interface Configuration
• PIM-SM Interface Summary
• Component Summary
• RP Set Summary
• Candidate RP Summary
• Static RP Configuration
