Purpose
Enters global configuration mode.
Enters multicast routing configuration mode.
Turns on NSF capability for the multicast routing system.
(Optional) Exits multicast routing configuration mode, and
returns the router to the source configuration mode.
(Optional) Enters PIM address-family configuration submode.
(Optional) Configures the NSF timeout value for multicast
forwarding route entries under the PIM process.
Note
(Optional) Exits PIM configuration mode and returns the router
to the source configuration mode.
Cisco IOS XR Multicast Configuration Guide for the Cisco XR12000 Series Router, Release 5.1.x
Configuring Multicast Nonstop Forwarding
• The following multicast processes are started: MRIB,
MFWD, PIM, IGMP, and MLD.
• For IPv4, IGMP version 3 is enabled by default; for IPv6,
MLD version 1 is enabled by default.
If you configure the PIM hello interval to a nondefault
value, configure the PIM NSF lifetime to a value less
than the hello hold time. Typically the value of the
hold-time field is 3.5 times the interval time value, or
120 seconds if the PIM hello interval time is 30 seconds.
