Enabling PIM-SM
Because BIDIR-PIM is implemented on the basis of PIM-SM, you must enable PIM-SM before enabling
BIDIR-PIM. To deploy a BIDIR-PIM domain, enable PIM-SM on all non-border interfaces of the domain.
IMPORTANT:
On a router, all interfaces in the same VPN instance must operate in the same PIM mode.
