PIM Configuration Guidelines

To configure PIM, include the pim statement at the [edit protocols] hierarchy level:

 protocols {
 	 pim {
 	 	 disable;
 	 	 dense-groups {
 	 	 	 addresses;
 	 	 }
 	 	 rib-group group-name;
 	 	 traceoptions {
 	 	 	 file name <replace> <size size> <files number> <no-stamp> 
 	 	 	 	 <(world-readable | no-world-readable)>;
 	 	 	 flag flag <flag-modifier> <disable>; 
 	 	 }
 	 	 interface interface-name {
 	 	 	 disable;
 	 	 	 mode (dense | sparse | sparse-dense);
 	 	 	 priority number;
 	 	 	 version version; 
 	 	 }
 	 	 rp {
 	 	 	 local { 
 	 	 	 	 disable;
 	 	 	 	 address address;
 	 	 	 	 group-ranges {
 	 	 	 	 	 destination-mask;
 	 	 	 	 }
 	 	 	 	 hold-time seconds;
 	 	 	 	 priority number;
 	 	 	 }
 	 	 	 auto-rp (announce | discovery | mapping);
 	 	 	 bootstrap-priority number; 
 	 	 	 static { 
 	 	 	 	 address address {
 	 	 	 	 	 version version;
 	 	 	 	 	 group-ranges {
 	 	 	 	 	 	 destination-mask;
 	 	 	 	 	 }
 	 	 	 	 }
 	 	 	 }
 	 	 }
 	 } 
 } 
 

By default, PIM is disabled.
