4. (Optional) For each interface that is running PIM, enter the specified local address in the
Local Address text box. PIM uses this address to send advertisements on the interface.
Note
You cannot configure a local address or a virtual address when IP clustering is enabled.
Note
If neighboring routers choose advertisement addresses that do not appear to be on a
shared subnet, all messages from the neighbor are rejected. A PIM router on a shared
LAN must have at least one interface address with a subnet prefix that all neighboring
PIM routers share.
5. (Optional) For each interface that is running PIM, enter a new designated router priority in
the DR Election Priority text box. The router with the highest priority and the highest IP
address is elected as the designated router. The default is 1, and the range is 0 to 4294967295
(2^32 - 1).

7. Click the Advanced PIM Options link. In the General Timers section, enter a value for the
hello interval (in seconds) in the Hello Interval text box. The router uses this interval to send
periodic Hello messages on the LAN.

Interval text box.
This value represents the interval after which the multicast (S, G) state for a silent source is
deleted.

Interval text box.
This value represents the interval between the last time an assert is received and when the
assert is timed out.

text box.
