Configuring state-refresh parameters

The router directly connected with the multicast source periodically sends state-refresh messages. You can
configure the interval for sending such messages.
A router might receive multiple state-refresh messages within a short time, and some of them might be
duplicated messages. To keep a router from receiving such duplicated messages, you can configure the
time that the router must wait before it receives next state-refresh message. If the router receives a new
state-refresh message within the waiting time, it discards the message. If this timer times out, the router
will accept a new state-refresh message, refresh its own PIM-DM state, and reset the waiting timer.
The TTL value of a state-refresh message decrements by 1 whenever it passes a router before it is
forwarded to the downstream node until the TTL value comes down to 0. In a small network, a
state-refresh message might cycle in the network. To effectively control the propagation scope of
state-refresh messages, configure an appropriate TTL value based on the network size.
Perform the following configurations on all routers in the PIM domain.
To configure state-refresh parameters:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter public network PIM view or
VPN instance PIM view.
3. Configure the interval between
state-refresh messages.
4. Configure the time to wait before
receiving a new state-refresh
message.
5. Configure the TTL value of
state-refresh messages.

Configuring PIM-DM graft retry period

In PIM-DM, graft is the only type of message that uses the acknowledgment mechanism. In a PIM-DM
domain, if a router does not receive a graft-ack message from the upstream router within the specified
time after it sends a graft message, the router keeps sending new graft messages at a configurable
interval (namely graft retry period), until it receives a graft-ack message from the upstream router.
