config pim cbsr
Purpose Used to configure the settings for the Candidate Bootstrap Router and the priority of
the selected IP interface to become the Boot Strap Router (BSR) for the PIM-SM
network domain.
Syntax
config pim cbsr [ipif <ipif_name 12> {priority [-1 | value 0-255>]} |
hash_masklen <value 0-32> | bootstrap_period <value 1-255>]
Description This command will configure the settings for the Candidate BSR. The Boot Strap
Router holds the information which determines which router on the network is to be
elected as the RP for the multicast group and then to distribute RP information to
other PIM-SM enabled routers. This command is for PIM-SM configurations only.
Parameters
ipif <ipif_name 12> − Enter the ipif name of the interface to become the CBSR.
priority [-1 | value 0-255>] − Used to state the Priority of this IP Interface to become
the BSR. The user may select a priority between -1 and 255. An entry of -1 states
that the interface will be disabled to be the BSR.
hash_masklen <value 0-32> − Enter a hash mask length, which will be used with
the IP address of the candidate RP and the multicast group address, to calculate
the hash algorithm used by the router to determine which CRP on the PIM-SM
enabled network will be the RP. The user may select a length between 0 and 32
with a default setting of 30. This parameter must be configured separately from the
ipif settings of this command. See the examples below for a better understanding.
bootstrap_period <value 1-255> − Enter a time period between 1 and 255 to
determine the interval the Switch will send out Boot Strap Messages (BSM) to the
PIM enabled network. The default setting is 60 seconds. This parameter must be
configured separately from the ipif settings of this command. See the examples
below for a better understanding.
Restrictions Only Administrator and Operator-level users can issue this command.
