RP to advertise advertisement messages, and specify an Access Control List (ACL) to limit the
range of the multicast groups served by the C-RP.
BSR
You can specify a Candidate-BSR (C-BSR) in a BSR domain, adjust the hash mask length used
by the C-RP for C-RP election, adjust the priority for BSR election, and adjust the legal address
range of BSRs.
Controlling a Multicast Source
You can configure the filtering rules based on multicast source addresses to control a multicast
source.
BSR Administrative Domain
To provide precise management, a PIM-SM network is divided into multiple BSR administrative
domains and a Global domain. This can reduce the workload of a single BSR and designate a
group address for users in a specific domain.
Adjusting Control Parameters for Maintaining PIM-SM Neighbors
You can adjust such control parameters of a PIM-SM neighbor relationship as:
l Interval for sending Hello messages
l Time period for the neighbor to hold the reachable state
l Whether to accept the Hello messages with Generation IDs
l Maximum delay in triggering the sending of the Hello messages
l Priority for DR election
l DR switching delay
l Neighbor filtering function: An interface sets up neighbor relationships with only the
addresses matching the filtering rules and deletes the neighbors unmatched with the filtering
rules.
Adjusting Control Parameters for Source Registering
You can configure the policy to filter Register messages, and set the timeout period for being in
the register suppression state and interval for sending null Register messages by running related
commands.
Adjusting Control Parameters for Multicast Forwarding
You can adjust the control parameters for multicast forwarding, including:
l Interval for sending Join messages
l Time period for the downstream interface to keep the forwarding state
l Time for overriding the prune action
l Filtering Join information in the Join/Prune messages
l Neighbor check function: checks whether the sent or received Join/Prune and Assert
messages are to or from a PIM neighbor. If not, stop sending these messages.
