You can also use the show ip pim dense, show ipv6 pim sparse, and show ipv6 pim dense commands to
view the configured keepalive period.
Configuring Notification Period
The switch can be configured for a minimum time interval that must elapse between various notifications,
such as neighbor loss notification, invalid register notification, invalid joinprune notification, RP mapping
notification, and interface election notification. For example:
To set the time that must elapse between PIM neighbor loss notifications originated by the router, enter ip
pim neighbor-loss-notification-period followed by the time in seconds. For example, to set the time
period of 10 seconds, enter:
-> ip pim neighbor-loss-notification-period 10
To set the time that must elapse between PIM invalid register notifications originated by the router, enter
ip pim invalid-register-notification-period followed by the time in seconds. For example, to set the time
period of 100 seconds, enter:
-> ip pim invalid-register-notification-period 100
To set the time that must elapse between PIM invalid joinprune notifications originated by the router,
enter ip pim invalid-joinprune-notification-period followed by the time.For example, to set the time
period of 100 seconds, enter:
-> ip pim invalid-joinprune-notification-period 100
To set the time that must elapse between PIM RP mapping notifications originated by the route, enter ip
pim rp-mapping-notification-period followed by the time in seconds.For example, to set the time period
of 100 seconds, enter:
-> ip pim rp-mapping-notification-period 100
To set the time that must elapse between PIM interface election notifications originated by the router,
enter ip pim interface-election-notification-period followed by the time in seconds. For example, to set
the time period of 100 seconds, enter:
-> ip pim interface-election-notification-period 100
Note. The values configured by the above commands are common for PIM in the IPv4 as well as IPv6
environments.
Verifying the Notification Period
To view the configured notification period, use the show ip pim notifications command. For example:
-> show ip pim notifications
Neighbor Loss Notifications
Period = 0
Count = 0
Invalid Register Notifications
