The active PIM mode, dense or sparse, reported by this neighbor; deprecated under PIMv2 since all neighbors on an interface must share the same mode as the interface itself.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.3.61.1.1.3.1.5
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> PIM-MIB::pimNeighborMode

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.3.61.1.1.3.1.5.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> PIM-MIB::pimNeighborMode.1
