Configuring Join/Prune Message Sizes - HP A8800 Configuration Manual

Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter interface view.
3. Configure the hello interval.
4. Configure the maximum delay
between hello messages.
5. Configure the join/prune
interval.
6. Configure assert timeout time.
7. Configure the join/prune
timeout time.
NOTE:
If there are no special networking requirements, we recommend that you use the default settings.

Configuring join/prune message sizes

A larger join/prune message size results in loss of a larger amount of information when a message is lost;
with a reduced join/message size, the loss of a single message brings relatively minor impact.
By controlling the maximum number of (S, G) entries in a join/prune message, you can effectively reduce
the number of (S, G) entries sent per unit of time.
To configure join/prune message sizes:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter IPv6 PIM view.
3. Configure the maximum size
of a join/prune message.
4. Configure the maximum
number of (S, G) entries in a
join/prune message.
Configuring IPv6 PIM to work with BFD
IPv6 PIM uses hello messages to elect a DR for a multi-access network. The elected DR will be the only
multicast forwarder on the multi-access network.
If the DR fails, a new DR election process will start after the DR is aged out. However, it might take a long
period of time. To start a new DR election process immediately after the original DR fails, you can enable
