Modifying the PIM Router-Query Message Interval
PIM routers and multilayer switches send PIM router-query messages to find which device will be the
DR for each LAN segment (subnet). The DR is responsible for sending IGMP host-query messages to
all hosts on the directly connected LAN.
DR for each LAN segment (subnet). The DR is responsible for sending IGMP host-query messages to
all hosts on the directly connected LAN.
With PIM DM operation, the DR has meaning only if IGMPv1 is in use. IGMPv1 does not have an IGMP
querier election process, so the elected DR functions as the IGMP querier. With PIM-SM operation, the
DR is the device that is directly connected to the multicast source. It sends PIM register messages to
notify the RP that multicast traffic from a source needs to be forwarded down the shared tree. In this
case, the DR is the device with the highest IP address.
