Configuration mode


interfaces interface {
    ipv6 {
        pim {
            bsr-border
        }
    }
}

Use this command to prevent PIM Version 2 (PIMv2) BSR messages from being sent or received through an interface. This is used to configure an interface bordering another PIM domain to avoid the exchange of BSR messages between the two domains. BSR messages should not be exchanged between different domains because routers in one domain may elect rendezvous points (RPs) in the other domain, resulting in a protocol malfunction or loss of isolation between the domains.

Note: This command does not set up multicast boundaries. It only sets up a PIM domain BSR message border.

Use the set form of this command to restrict the flow of BSR messages through an interface.

Use the delete form of this command to restore the default behavior.

Use the show form of this command to display BSR border configuration.
