Command system-view interface interface-type interface-number ipv6 pim state-refresh-capable Remarks N/A N/A By default, the state refresh feature is enabled. Configuring state refresh parameters The router directly connected with the IPv6 multicast source periodically sends state refresh messages. You can configure the interval for sending such messages on that router. A router might receive duplicate state refresh messages within a short time. To prevent this situation, you can configure the amount of time that the router must wait before receiving the next state refresh message. If the router receives a new state refresh message within the specified waiting time, it discards it. If this timer times out, the router accepts a new state refresh message, refreshes its own IPv6 PIM-DM state, and resets the waiting timer. The hop limit value of a state refresh message decrements by 1 whenever it passes a router before it is forwarded to the downstream node until the hop limit value comes down to 0. In a small network, a state refresh message might cycle in the network. To control the propagation scope of state refresh messages, configure an appropriate hop limit value based on the network size on the router directly connected with the IPv6 multicast source.

Configuring IPv6 PIM-DM graft retry timer In IPv6 PIM-DM, graft is the only type of message that uses the acknowledgment mechanism. In an IPv6 PIM-DM domain, if a router does not receive a graft-ack message from the upstream router within the specified time after it sends a graft message, the router keeps sending new graft messages at a configurable interval (graft retry timer) until it receives a graft-ack message from the upstream router.

Configuring state refresh parameters
The router directly connected with the IPv6 multicast source periodically sends state refresh messages.
You can configure the interval for sending such messages on that router.
A router might receive duplicate state refresh messages within a short time. To prevent this situation, you
can configure the amount of time that the router must wait before receiving the next state refresh message.
If the router receives a new state refresh message within the specified waiting time, it discards it. If this
timer times out, the router accepts a new state refresh message, refreshes its own IPv6 PIM-DM state, and
resets the waiting timer.
The hop limit value of a state refresh message decrements by 1 whenever it passes a router before it is
forwarded to the downstream node until the hop limit value comes down to 0. In a small network, a state
refresh message might cycle in the network. To control the propagation scope of state refresh messages,
configure an appropriate hop limit value based on the network size on the router directly connected with
the IPv6 multicast source.

In IPv6 PIM-DM, graft is the only type of message that uses the acknowledgment mechanism. In an IPv6
PIM-DM domain, if a router does not receive a graft-ack message from the upstream router within the
specified time after it sends a graft message, the router keeps sending new graft messages at a
configurable interval (graft retry timer) until it receives a graft-ack message from the upstream router. For
