Configuring IPv6 PIM common timers on an interface

Follow these steps to configure IPv6 PIM common timers on an interface:

To do...

Use the command...

Remarks

Enter system view

system-view

Enter interface view

interface interface-type
interface-number

Configure the hello interval

pim ipv6 timer hello interval

Optional
30 seconds by default

Configure the maximum delay
between hello messages

pim ipv6 triggered-hello-delay
interval

Optional
5 seconds by default

Configure the join/prune interval pim ipv6 timer join-prune interval

Optional
60 seconds by default

Configure the join/prune timeout
time

pim ipv6 holdtime join-prune
interval

Optional
210 seconds by default

Configure assert timeout time

pim ipv6 holdtime assert interval

Optional
180 seconds by default

NOTE:

If no special networking requirements are raised, use the default settings.

Configuring join/prune message sizes

A larger join/prune message size will result in loss of a larger amount of information when a message

is lost; with a reduced join/message size, the loss of a single message has a relatively minor impact.
By controlling the maximum number of (S, G) entries in a join/prune message, you can effectively reduce

the number of (S, G) entries sent per unit of time.
Follow these steps to configure join/prune message sizes:

To do...

Use the command...

Remarks

Enter system view

system-view

Enter IPv6 PIM view

pim ipv6

Configure the maximum size of a
join/prune message

jp-pkt-size packet-size

Optional
8,100 bytes by default

Configure the maximum number of
(S, G) entries in a join/prune

message

jp-queue-size queue-size

Optional
1,020 by default

CAUTION:

If IPv6 PIM snooping–enabled switches are deployed in the IPv6 PIM network, be sure to set a value no
greater than the IPv6 path MTU for the maximum size of a join/prune message on the receiver-side edge

IPv6 PIM devices.
