Configures an interval for periodically sending null-registers.
| ipv4 | Specifies the IPv4 address family. |
| ipv6 | Specifies the IPv6 address family. |
| reg-interval | Specifies an interval time in seconds. Range is 30 - 200 seconds. Default is 60. |
| probe-interval | Specifies an interval time in seconds. Default is 5. |
The register-probe-interval time should be set less than the register-suppress-interval time. By default, a null register is sent every 55 seconds (register-suppress-interval – register-probe-interval). A response to the null register is expected within register probe interval. By specifying a larger interval, a CPU peak load can be avoided because the null-registers are generated less frequently. The register probe time should be less than half of the register suppress time, for best results.
The following example configures the register suppress interval and register probe time:
configure pim register-suppress-interval 90 register-probe time 10
