CLI Reference Guide
Enable PIM on the interface for either sparse mode or dense mode operation.
Use the no form of the command to disable the PIM function on the interface.
Enables sparse mode of operation.
Enables dense mode of operation.
IP multicast routing is disabled on all interfaces.
Interface configuration.
This command is only valid for the VLAN interface.
Use this command to specify the PIM operating mode for an interface. The
interface can be either operated in the sparse mode or the dense mode.
To switch the PIM operating mode please use no ip pim {sparse-mode | dense-
mode} to disable PIM at first then set the new mode required. PIM needs to be
disabled first since only one multicast routing protocol can be enabled on one
interface. When the command ip pim dense-mode is issued, PIM dense mode
will be configured on the interface. Therefore when the command ip pim
sparse-mode is issued, attempting to execute sparse mode on the interface, the
system will reply with an error message because PIM dense mode is already
configured on that interface.
Enabling PIM on an interface also enables Internet Group Management Protocol
(IGMP) operation on that interface.
Before the PIM function is enabled on an interface, enable IP multicast routing
by issuing the command ip multicast-routing in global configuration mode.
This example shows how to enable PIM-SM protocol on a specified interface.
Verify the settings by entering the show ip pim interface command.
