In view of information integrity of a register message in the transmission process, you can configure the
device to calculate the checksum based on the entire register message. However, to reduce the workload
of encapsulating data in register messages and for the sake of interoperability, do not use this checksum
calculation method.
To configure multicast source registration:
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Enter PIM view.
3.
Configure a filtering rule for
register messages.
4.
Configure the device to
calculate the checksum based
on the entire register
message.
Configuring switchover to SPT
CAUTION:
If the device is an RP, disabling switchover to SPT might cause multicast traffic forwarding failures on the
source-side DR. When disabling switchover to SPT, be sure you fully understand its impact on your
network.
To configure the switchover to SPT:
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Enter PIM view.
3.
Configure the criteria for
triggering a switchover to SPT.

By default, no register filtering rule
exists.
By default, the device calculates
the checksum based on the header
of a register message.

By default, both the receiver-side
DR and RP immediately trigger the
switchover from RPT to SPT after
receiving the first multicast packet.
