Hello all, I had emailed the group last week with a query
with regard to the PIM state machine. I was asked to send a network layout
diagram to the group and give further details of the PIM code used. I have attached
the layout of the test-bed along with this email. I should add that the
test-bed is connected to the Internet through one of the ports (not shown) on
the RP. All the routers used in the test-bed are from Cisco nothing against juniper
routers, just that these were the ones that I could get my hands on. I
have enabled PIM debug on the RP and source’s DR
monitor state changes during the PIM Register
process. Everything seems to be fine, i.e. I receive content at the receiver and can see all PIM
messages on the various subnets but I have a query. Why the
following messages were shown at the RP and source’s DR respectively, At Source’s DR,
PIM(0): Building Periodic Join/Prune message for 224.10.10.1 At RP, Building Periodic (*,G) Join /
(S,G,RP-bit) Prune message for 224.10.10.1 These messages
are shown periodically after the initial messages about sending, receiving
register and register-stop messages. But I don’t see any PIM messages on subnets with regard to the two
messages mentioned above on the physical interfaces which I am monitoring using
PCs. Any info would be great. Cheers Nikhil |
