show ip pim pending

Description

Shows the pending joins on a PIM router. Optionally you can specify display information by VRF. If no options are specified, it shows information for the default VRF.

Use this command to determine what flows are being requested on the PIM network. If data availability for a flow is expected, and a join for the flow is pending, the troubleshooting search moves to the source of that flow, since the routers are verified to be seeing the request for data.

Command context

Operator (>) or Manager (#)

Parameters

<GROUP-ADDR>

Specifies a group address in IPv4 format (x.x.x.x), where x is a decimal number from 0 to 255.

all-vrfs

Selects all VRFs.

vrf <VRF-NAME>

Specifies the name of a VRF. Default: default.

[vsx-peer]

Shows the output from the VSX peer switch. If the switches do not have the VSX configuration or the ISL is down, the output from the VSX peer switch is not displayed. This parameter is available on switches that support VSX.

Authority

Operators or Administrators or local user group members with execution rights for this command. Operators can execute this command from the operator context (>) only.

Example

On the 6400 Switch Series, interface identification differs.
