NETGEAR 8800 Chassis Switch CLI Manual configure pim crp vlan configure pim crp vlan [none | ] {} Description Configures the dynamic candidate rendezvous point (CRP) for PIM sparse-mode operation. Syntax Description vlan_name none policy priority Specifies a VLAN name. Specifies no policy file. Specifies a policy file name. Specifies a priority setting. The range is 0 - 254. Default The default setting for priority is 0 and indicates the highest priority. Usage Guidelines NETGEAR 8800 switches support up to 50 RPs in a switch, and up to 180 groups within a single RP. If you configure more than 180 groups for a single RP, the switch does not process the groups added after the first 180. The policy file contains the list of multicast group addresses serviced by this RP. This set of group addresses are advertised as candidate RPs. Each router then elects the common RP for a group address based on a common algorithm. This group to RP mapping should be consistent on all routers. This policy file is not used for filtering purposes. As used with this command, the policy file is just a container for a list of addresses. So a typical policy file used for RP configuration looks a little different from a policy used for other purposes. The following is a sample policy file which configures the CRP for the address ranges 239.0.0.0/24 and 232.144.27.0/24: entry netgear1 { if match any { } then { nlri 239.0.0.0/24 ; nlri 232.144.27.0/24 ; } } The VLAN specified for a CRP must have PIM configured. To delete a CRP, use the keyword none as the access policy. Chapter 26. IP Multicast Commands | 1191
