whether the group address in the (S, G) channel subscribed by the receivers falls in
the SSM group range. All PIM-SM-enabled interfaces assume that multicast
groups within this address range are using the SSM model.
Follow these steps to configure an SSM group range:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter public instance PIM view
or VPN instance PIM view
Configure the SSM group
range
n
The commands introduced in this section are to be configured on all routers in the
PIM domain.

CAUTION:
Make sure that the same SSM group range is configured on all routers in the
■
entire PIM-SSM domain. Otherwise, multicast information cannot be delivered
through the SSM model.
If a multicast group falls in the SSM group range, but members of this group
■
send IGMPv1 or IGMPv2 joins, the device that receives these join messages will
not trigger (*, G) joins.

For the configuration tasks described in this section
Configurations performed in PIM view are effective to all interfaces, while
■
configurations performed in interface view are effective to the current interface
only.
If the same function or parameter is configured in both PIM view and interface
■
view, the configuration performed in interface view is given priority, regardless
of the configuration sequence.
