ip pim-dense max-graft-retries
Syntax
ip pim-dense max-graft-retries <ATTEMPT-VALUE>
no ip pim-dense max-graft-retries
Description
Configures the number of attempts the routing switch will retry sending the same graft packet to join a flow.
The
no
form of this command removes the currently configured value and sets to the default of 3 attempts.
Command context
config-if
config-if-vlan
config-lag-if
Parameters
<INTERVAL-VALUE>
Specifies the number of retries for the routing switch to resend the graft packet. Default: 3 attempts. Range: 1-10 attempts.
Authority
Administrators or local user group members with execution rights for this command.
Usage
If a graft acknowledgment response is not received after the specified number of retries, the routing switch ceases trying to join the flow. In this case the flow is removed until either a state-refresh from upstream re-initiates the flow or an upstream router floods the flow. Increasing this value helps to improve multicast reliability.
Example
Configuring and removing dense graft retry interval:
switch(config)# interface vlan40 switch(config-if-vlan)# ip pim-dense max-graft-retries 6 switch(config-if-vlan)# no ip pim-dense max-graft-retries
