Configuring PIM and PIM6
Feature Information
Support for Graceful Restart protocol
Independent Multicast (PIM) is a multicast
high availability (HA) enhancement that
improves the reconvergence of multicast
routes (mroutes) after a route processor (RP)
switchover. In the event of an RP switchover,
this feature uses the PIM-SM Generation ID
(GenID) value as a mechanism to trigger
adjacent PIM neighbors on an interface to
send PIM messages for all (*, G) and (S, G)
mroutes that use that interface as an RPF
interface, immediately reestablishing those
states on the newly active RP.
Support for configuring the IP source address
of register messages.
BFD supported for PIM with IPv4.
Cisco NX-OS software for the Nexus 7000
Series devices does not support PIM SSM or
BIDR on a vPC.
Display vPC statistics with the show ip pim
statistics command.
