NOTE:
Generally, a BSR performs BSM semantic fragmentation according to the MTU of its BSR interface. For
BSMs originated due to learning of a new PIM neighbor, semantic fragmentation is performed according
to the MTU of the interface that sends the BSMs.
Configuring PIM-SSM
PIM-SSM requires IGMPv3 support. Enable IGMPv3 on PIM routers that connect to multicast receivers.

Configuration prerequisites
Before you configure PIM-SSM, configure a unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain are
interoperable at the network layer.
Enabling PIM-SM
The implementation of the SSM model is based on subsets of PIM-SM. Therefore, you must enable
PIM-SM before configuring PIM-SSM.
When you deploy a PIM-SSM domain, enable PIM-SM on non-border interfaces of the routers.
IMPORTANT:
All the interfaces on a device must be enabled with the same PIM mode.
To enable PIM-SM:
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Enable IP multicast routing,
and enter MRIB view.
3.
Return to system view.
4.
Enter interface view.
5.
Enable PIM-SM.
