Usage Guidelines

In a PIM-SM or PIM-SSM Layer 3 MLT/SMLT multicast environment, when an SMLT link down or SMLT link up event occurs, or when an individual port in an (S)MLT goes down or comes back up, traffic can be re-hashed (switched over) either to another port in the (S)MLT or to any of the IST's MLT ports. This is valid, as the nature of the (S)MLT environment is that traffic can ingress on any one of these ports and be successfully forwarded to receivers. However, the Incoming Port record might not accurately reflect which port the data is arriving on at a given time. This issue does not cause traffic loss. Check traffic statistics on the ports of the (S)MLT/ IST to determine the ingress port.

Command Output

The show ip pim mroute command displays the following information:

Output field

Description

Src

Displays the IP address of the source that sends the multicast stream. A nonzero value indicates that a source sends multicast traffic. 0.0.0.0 indicates that this entry is created in response to a receiver that wants to receive this traffic.

Grp

Displays the IP multicast group address.

RP

Displays the IP address of the RP router.

Upstream

Displays the IP address of the next hop that a multicast packet takes when received on the correct port as listed on the incoming interface.

Flags

Displays the flags configured based on the condition of the receivers, the RP, and the senders. Use the legend at the bottom of the output to explain the flag values.

Incoming Port

Lists the port through which a multicast packet can ingress. If the port is a member of a Multi-Link Trunk (MLT), the packets can ingress on any port of the MLT.

Outgoing Ports

Lists all ports through which traffic that enters on incoming ports exit.

Joined Ports

Lists all ports that received PIM join messages.

Pruned Ports

List all ports that received PIM prune messages.

Leaf Ports

Lists multicast receivers that directly connect to the router.

Asserted Ports

Lists all ports that received assert messages. The router uses assert messages to help determine the best path to the source.

Prune Pending Ports

Lists all ports currently in the prune-pending state.

Assert Winner Ifs

Lists interfaces elected the assert winner. The winner continues to forward multicast traffic to the LAN.

Assert Loser Ifs

Lists interfaces not elected as the assert winner. The loser interface is pruned.

Timers

Displays the up time and expiration time for the entry in the routing table.

AssertVifTimer

Displays the time after which the assert winner state refreshes.

Example

The following example displays information from the route table.
