spbm-config-mode boot flag

Shortest Path Bridging (SPB) and Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) cannot interoperate with each other on the switch at the same time. The boot flag called spbm-config-mode ensures that SPB and PIM stay mutually exclusive.

  • Any change to the spbm-config-mode boot flag requires a reboot for the change to take effect.

  • If you disable the boot flag, save the configuration and reboot with the saved configuration. After you disable the flag, you can configure PIM and IGMP Snooping, but you cannot configure SPB or IS-IS.
