• Use to specify how often the router sends hello messages to remote neighbors.
• Example
host1(config-router-rn)#query-interval 40
• Use the no version to restore the default setting, 30 seconds.
• See query-interval.
remote-neighbor
• Use to specify a remote neighbor for PIM sparse mode.
• Specify the IP address of the interface on the remote neighbor that PIM uses as the
source address for the connection to this router.
• Example
host1(config-router)#remote-neighbor 1001::1 sparse-mode
• Use the no version to remove the remote neighbor and any attributes configured for
the remote neighbor.
• See remote-neighbor.
update-source
• Use to specify the PIM interface whose local address is used as the source address for
the PIM connection to a remote neighbor.
• You can use the same source address to form neighbor adjacencies with more than
one PIM remote neighbor.
• You must use the IPv6 address of this interface when issuing the remote-neighbor
command on the remote neighbor.
• Example
host1(config-router-rn)#update-source loopback 5
• Use the no version to delete the source address from the connection to the remote
neighbor.
Configuration Example
This example uses the configuration shown in Figure 21 on page 208. Two E Series routers
called router Boston and router Chicago are running PIM and are connected by MPLS
tunnels. To configure the routers as PIM remote neighbors:
1. Specify that router Chicago will be a remote neighbor of router Boston, and identify
the IP address on router Chicago that will transmit datagrams to router Boston.
boston(config-router)#remote-neighbor 1001::1 sparse-mode
2. Specify the location of the interface that will transmit datagrams from router Boston
to router Chicago.
boston(config-router-rn)#update-source atm 2/1.108
3. Specify that router Boston will send hello messages to router Chicago every 40
seconds.
