Configuring PIM Sparse Mode Parameters
Purpose
(Optional) Configures the rate limit in packets
per second. The range is from 1 to 65,535. The
default is no limit.
(Optional) Configures the initial holddown
period in seconds. The range is from 90 to 210.
Specify 0 to disable the holddown period. The
default is 210.
(Optional) Displays PIM running-configuration

register rate limit.
Enters interface mode on the interface type and
number, such as ethernet slot/port.
Enables PIM sparse mode on this interface.
The default is disabled.
(Optional) Sets the designated router (DR)
priority that is advertised in PIM hello
messages. Values range from 1 to 4294967295.
The default is 1.
(Optional) Enables an MD5 hash
