OmniSwitch Troubleshooting Guide

page 16-9

To view which routers are assuming the role of the BSR, expiry time, C-BSR address, and C-BSR prior-
ity, type:

-> show ip pimsm
Status                     = enabled,
BSR Address                = 192.168.13.1,
BSR Expiry Time            = 00h:02m:01s,
CBSR Address               = 0.0.0.0,
CBSR Mask Length           = 30,
CBSR Priority              = 0,
.......

IF you don’t want a PIM router to assume BSR role, enter the following syntax:

-> no ip pimsm cbsr-address

This command will result in a C-BSR address of 0.0.0.0
