Adjusting Control Parameters for Join/Prune Messages

Pre-configuration Tasks

Before configuring control parameters for Join/Prune messages, complete the following tasks:

• Configure a unicast routing protocol to ensure normal unicast routing on the network.
• Enable PIM-SM.

A multicast device sends Join messages upstream to require forwarding of multicast data, and Prune messages upstream to stop the forwarding of multicast data. You can configure control parameters for Join/Prune messages as required. If there is no special requirement, the default values are recommended.

Configuration Procedure

Configuration tasks in this section can be performed in any sequence.
