PIM Commands
In this section, the commands used to configure the Protocol Independent Multicast -Dense Mode (PIM-
DM) and the Protocol Independent Multicast - Sparse Mode (PIM-SM) are described. The PIM-DM and
PIM-SM consist of multicast routing protocols that provide scalable inter-domain multicast routing via the
Internet, that is, independent of any mechanisms utilized by a particular unicast routing protocol. Only one
PIM mode may be in operation at a given time.
