6.15 Maintaining PIM-SM (IPv4)
Maintaining PIM-SM involves resetting PIM statistics, and monitoring PIM running status.
6.15.1 Clearing Statistics of PIM Control Messages
If you need to re-collect the statistics about PIM control messages, you can reset the existent
statistics. Note that the statistics cannot be restored after you reset them. This operation does not
affect normal running of PIM.
Context
CAUTION
The statistics of PIM control messages on an interface cannot be restored after you clear it. So,
confirm the action before you use the command.
Procedure
l Run the reset pim [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name | all-instance ] control-message
counters [ interface interface-type interface-number ] command in the user view to clear
the statistics of PIM control messages on an interface.

6.15.2 Clearing the PIM Status of the Specified Downstream
Interfaces of PIM Entries
You can clear the PIM Join/Prune state and Assert state on the specified downstream interface
of a PIM entry. IGMP status and static multicast groups on this interface are not affected.
Context
CAUTION
Clearing PIM status of the downstream interfaces may trigger the sending of corresponding Join/
Prune messages, which affects multicast services.
Using the following command can clear join information about illegal users, and clear the PIM
status of the specified interface in a specified entry, such as PIM Join/Prune status and Assert
status.
The command cannot be used to clear the IGMP or static group join status on a specified
interface.
