PIM-SM Router Configuration Commands

Dec 09,2010 by admin

PIM-SM Router Configuration Commands  
  PIM-SM is more complicated to configure than PIM-DM because an RP is required for each group. One RP can handle all groups, which can be spread across multiple RPs. The first step is to enable multicast routing in Global Configuration mode using the command  
  ip multicast-routing  
  Next, enable PIM-SM on the router interfaces using the interface command  
  ip pim sparse-mode  
  or  
  ip pim sparse-dense-mode  
  PIM-Sparse-Dense-Mode is used when there are groups with no RP. In this case, groups with an assigned RP are treated as Sparse Mode groups, and groups without an RP are treated as Dense Mode groups.
