Configuring IPv6 PIM common timers on an interface
Follow these steps to configure IPv6 PIM common timers on an interface:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter interface view
Configure the hello interval
Configure the maximum delay
between hello messages
Configure the join/prune
interval
Configure the join/prune
timeout time
Configure assert timeout time
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 will result 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 will bring 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.
Follow these steps to configure join/prune message sizes:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter IPv6 PIM view
Configure the maximum size of
a join/prune message
Configure the maximum
number of (S, G) entries in a
join/prune message
Use the command...
system-view
interface interface-type
interface-number
pim ipv6 timer hello interval
pim ipv6
triggered-hello-delay interval
pim ipv6 timer join-prune
interval
pim ipv6 holdtime join-prune
interval
pim ipv6 holdtime assert
interval
Use the command...
system-view
pim ipv6

jp-queue-size queue-size
