This command is used to configure a PIM interface that receives multicast data traffic. It could be either from a source directly connected or from a PIM neighbor. In the second case (from a source not directly connected), if the received interface has no PIM neighbor, the traffic is dropped (default behavior). If you turn off this check, the traffic is processed.
| dense-neighbor-check | Check if multicast traffic is received from PIM neighbor in dense mode. |
| on | Drop multicast traffic if not received from PIM neighbor (default). |
| off | Forward multicast traffic even if not received from PIM dense neighbor. |
The default is on.
The following example turns on dense neighbor check:
configure pim dense-neighbor-check on
