Configuration prerequisites
Before you configure BIDIR-PIM, configure a unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the
domain can interoperate at the network layer.
Enabling BIDIR-PIM
Because BIDIR-PIM is implemented on the basis of PIM-SM, you must enable PIM-SM before you
enable BIDIR-PIM. As a best practice, enable PIM-SM on all non-border interfaces of routers when
you deploy a BIDIR-PIM domain.
IMPORTANT:
All interfaces on a device must be enabled with the same PIM mode.
