rlPimNmEntAcceptUnicastBsms
Module: CISCOSB-PIM-MIB
OID (symbolic): CISCOSB-PIM-MIB::rlPimNmEntAcceptUnicastBsms
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.6.1.101.211.3.1.12
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: TruthValue
Access: read-create
Description: Set this object to 'true' to enable DC-PIM Neighbor Manager to accept PIM Bootstrap Messages (BSMs) which are sent to DC-PIM as unicast messages. Setting the object to 'false' means that DC-PIM Neighbor Manager ignores received unicast BSMs.
The setting of this object has no effect on the ability of DC-PIM to accept BSMs which are multicast.
DC-PIM only ever multicasts BSMs; it never sends them as unicast messages.
This object can only be set to 'true' if the rlPimNmEntEnableUnicastMessages object is also set to 'true'.
What is rlPimNmEntAcceptUnicastBsms?
This read-create TruthValue enables the DC-PIM Neighbor Manager to accept PIM Bootstrap Messages sent to it as unicast; setting it false makes the Neighbor Manager ignore received unicast BSMs, though DC-PIM itself only ever multicasts BSMs and never sends them as unicast. It's a control an admin uses to limit how the router will accept RP-set distribution messages. For example, setting this to false makes the router ignore any Bootstrap messages sent to it as unicast, relying solely on multicast BSMs from the elected BSR.
