Configuration prerequisites
Before you configure common PIM features, complete the following tasks:
Configure any unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain are interoperable at the
network layer.
Configure PIM-DM, or PIM-SM.
Configuring a multicast data filter
In either a PIM-DM domain or a PIM-SM domain, routers can check passing-by multicast data and
determine whether to continue forwarding the multicast data based on the configured filtering rules. You
can configure a PIM router as a multicast data filter to help implement traffic control and control the
information available to downstream receivers.
A filter can filter not only independent multicast data but also multicast data encapsulated in register
messages. Generally, a filter nearer to the multicast source has a better filtering effect.
To configure a multicast data filter:
Step
Command
Remarks
1.
Enter system view.
system-view
N/A
2.
Enter PIM view.
pim
N/A
3.
Configure a multicast data
filter:
source-policy
acl-number
By default, no multicast data filter is
configured.
Configuring a hello message filter
Along with the wide applications of PIM, the security requirement for the protocol is becoming
increasingly demanding. The establishment of correct PIM neighboring relationships is the prerequisite
for secure application of PIM.
