Module: CISCOSB-PIM-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCOSB-PIM-MIB::rlPimInterfaceNeighborFilter

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.6.1.101.211.1.1.15

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: DisplayString

Access: read-create

Description: When neighbor filtering is enabled, the local router will process link-local multicast PIM messages received on this interface only if the originator's IP address (that is, the source address in the IP header) is included in the standard access list corresponding to the list name configured for this object.

Note that this filter does not apply to unicast PIM messages, even if the originator is directly connected to the local router. So, for example, this filter has no effect on the processing of received Register messages.

In other words, the standard access list is a whitelist, and the local router will treat any router excluded from the list as not being a valid PIM neighbor.

To filter out all PIM neighbors, either configure this object to be the list name of an 'exclude all' standard access list, or use the rlPimInterfaceStubInterface object.

What is rlPimInterfaceNeighborFilter?

This read-create DisplayString points to a standard access list that filters which originator IP addresses' link-local multicast PIM messages this interface will process, and it does not apply to unicast PIM messages even from directly connected originators. It's a control an admin uses to keep untrusted or rogue devices from being treated as valid PIM neighbors. For example, setting this to an access list permitting only two known router IPs stops any other device on that segment from being treated as a valid PIM neighbor.
