show pim rps

Instance

Name of the routing instance.

Family or Address family

Name of the address family: inet (IPv4) or inet6 (IPv6).

RP address

Address of the rendezvous point.

Type

Type of RP:

• auto-rp—Address of the RP known through the Auto-RP protocol.

• bootstrap—Address of the RP known through the bootstrap router protocol (BSR).

• embedded—Address of the RP known through an embedded RP (IPv6).

• static—Address of RP known through static configuration.

Holdtime

How long to keep the RP active, with time remaining, in seconds.

Timeout

How long until the local routing device determines the RP to be unreachable, in seconds.

Groups

Number of groups currently using this RP.

Group prefixes

Addresses of groups that this RP can span.

Learned via

Address and method by which the RP was learned.

Mode

The PIM mode of the RP: bidirectional or sparse.

If a sparse and bidirectional RPs are configured with the same RP address, they appear as separate entries in both formats.

Time Active

How long the RP has been active, in the format hh:mm:ss.

Device Index

Index value of the order in which Junos OS finds and initializes the interface.

For bidirectional RPs, the Device Index output field is omitted because bidirectional RPs do not require encapsulation and de-encapsulation interfaces.

Subunit

Logical unit number of the interface.

For bidirectional RPs, the Subunit output field is omitted because bidirectional RPs do not require encapsulation and de-encapsulation interfaces.

Interface

Either the encapsulation or the de-encapsulation logical interface, depending on whether this routing device is a designated router (DR) facing an RP router, or is the local RP, respectively.

For bidirectional RPs, the Interface output field is omitted because bidirectional RPs do not require encapsulation and de-encapsulation interfaces.

Group Ranges

Addresses of groups that this RP spans.

Active groups using RP

Number of groups currently using this RP.

total

Total number of active groups for this RP.

Register State for RP

Current register state for each group:

• Group—Multicast group address.

• Source—Multicast source address for which the PIM register is sent or received, depending on whether this router is a designated router facing an RP router, or is the local RP, respectively:

• First Hop—PIM-designated routing device that sent the Register message (the source address in the IP header).

• RP Address—RP to which the Register message was sent (the destination address in the IP header).

• State:

  On the designated router:

  • Send—Sending Register messages.

  • Probe—Sent a null register. If a Register-Stop message does not arrive in 5 seconds, the designated router resumes sending Register messages.

  • Suppress—Received a Register-Stop message. The designated router is waiting for the timer to resume before changing to Probe state.

• On the RP:

  • Receive—Receiving Register messages.

Anycast-PIM rpset

If anycast RP is configured, the addresses of the RPs in the set.

Anycast-PIM local address used

If anycast RP is configured, the local address used by the RP.

Anycast-PIM Register State

If anycast RP is configured, the current register state for each group:

• Group—Multicast group address.

• Source—Multicast source address for which the PIM register is sent or received, depending on whether this routing device is a designated router facing an RP router, or is the local RP, respectively.

• Origin—How the information was obtained:

  • DIRECT—From a local attachment

  • MSDP—From the Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP)

  • DR—From the designated router

RP selected

For sparse mode and bidirectional mode, the identity of the RP for the specified group address.
