Cisco Catalyst 3650 User Manual

Defining the PIM Domain Border (CLI)
As IP multicast becomes more widespread, the chance of one PIMv2 domain bordering another PIMv2 domain
increases. Because two domains probably do not share the same set of RPs, BSR, candidate RPs, and candidate
BSRs, you need to constrain PIMv2 BSR messages from flowing into or out of the domain. Allowing messages
to leak across the domain borders could adversely affect the normal BSR election mechanism and elect a
single BSR across all bordering domains and comingle candidate RP advertisements, resulting in the election
of RPs in the wrong domain.
This figure displays how you can configure the PIM domain border by using the ip pim bsr-border command.
