Configuring and Viewing PIM-SM for IPv4 Multicast Routing

Beginning in Privileged EXEC mode, use the following commands to
configure PIM-SM for IPv4 multicast routing on the switch and on VLAN
routing interfaces and to view PIM-SM information.
Command

ip pim sparse
ip pim spt-threshold

Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Enable PIM-SM as the multicast routing protocol on
the switch.
Set the Data Threshold rate, in Kbps (range: 0–2000)
for the last-hop (or leaf) router to switch to the
shortest path.
Set the rate, in Kbps (range: 0–2000), above which the
Rendezvous Point router will switch to a source-
specific shortest path tree.
Configure the switch to announce its candidacy as a
bootstrap router (BSR).

be ANDed with the group address before the hash
function is called. All groups with the same seed
hash correspond to the same RP . For example, if this
value is 24, only the first 24 bits of the group
addresses matter. This allows you to get one RP for
multiple groups. (Range 0–32 bits).
priority
•
BSR with the higher priority is preferred. If the
priority values are the same, the router with the
higher IP address is the BSR. (Range 0–255).
