MULTICAST ROUTING COMMANDS

Command Usage

The multicast interface that first receives a multicast stream from a particular source forwards this traffic to all other PIM interfaces on the router. If there are no requesting groups on that interface, the leaf node sends a prune message upstream and enters a prune state for this multicast stream. The prune state is maintained until the join-prune-holdtime timer expires or a graft message is received for the forwarding entry.

Example

Console(config-if)#ip pim join-prune-holdtime 60

Console(config-if)#

ip pim graft-retry-interval

Use this command to configure the time to wait for a Graft acknowledgement before resending a Graft. Use the no form to restore the default value.

Syntax

ip pim graft-retry-interval seconds no ip pim graft-retry-interval

seconds - The time before resending a Graft. (Range: 0-65535)

Default Setting

3 seconds

Command Mode

Interface Configuration (VLAN)

Command Usage

A graft message is sent by a router to cancel a prune state. When a router receives a graft message, it must respond with an graft acknowledgement message. If this acknowledgement message is lost, the router that sent the graft message will resend it a number of times (as defined by the ip pim max-graft-retriescommand).
