608 BigIron RX Series Configuration Guide53-1001986-01Displaying PIM Sparse configuration information and statistics23• The PIM flow cache• The PIM multicast cache• PIM traffic statisticsDisplaying basic PIM Sparse configuration informationTo display PIM Sparse configuration information, enter the following command at any CLI level.Syntax: show ip pim sparseThis example shows the PIM Sparse configuration information on PIM Sparse router A in Figure 92.This display shows the following information.This field... Displays...Global PIM Sparse mode settingsHello interval How frequently the BigIron RX sends PIM Sparse hello messages to itsPIM Sparse neighbors. This field show the number of seconds betweenhello messages. PIM Sparse routers use hello messages to discover oneanother.Neighbor timeout How many seconds the BigIron RX will wait for a hello message from aneighbor before determining that the neighbor is no longer present andremoving cached PIM Sparse forwarding entries for the neighbor.Bootstrap Msg interval How frequently the BSR configured on the BigIron RX sends the RP set tothe RPs within the PIM Sparse domain. The RP set is a list of candidateRPs and their group prefixes. A candidate RP’s group prefix indicates therange of PIM Sparse group numbers for which it can be an RP.NOTE: This field contains a value only if an interface on the BigIron RX iselected to be the BSR. Otherwise, the field is blank.Candidate-RP Advertisement interval How frequently the candidate PR configured on the BigIron RX sendscandidate RP advertisement messages to the BSR.NOTE: This field contains a value only if an interface on the BigIron RX isconfigured as a candidate RP. Otherwise, the field is blank.BigIron RX(config-pim-router)# show ip pim sparseGlobal PIM Sparse Mode SettingsHello interval: 60, Neighbor timeout: 180Bootstrap Msg interval: 130, Candidate-RP Advertisement interval: 60Join/Prune interval: 60, SPT Threshold: 1Interface Ethernet e3/8TTL Threshold: 1, EnabledLocal Address: 207.95.8.1Interface Ve 1TTL Threshold: 1, EnabledLocal Address: 207.95.6.1
