Enabling PGM Host with a Virtual Host Interface
To enable PGM Host globally on the router and to configure the router to source PGM packets through
a vif, use the following command in global configuration mode:
See the “PGM Host with a Virtual Interface Example” section later in this chapter for an example of
enabling PGM Host with a virtual interface.
Enabling PGM Host with a Physical Interface
To enable PGM Host globally on the router and to configure the router to source PGM packets through
a physical interface, use the following commands in global configuration mode:
See the “PGM Host with a Physical Interface Example” section later in this chapter for an example of
enabling PGM Host with a physical interface.
Verifying PGM Host Configuration
Note Support for the PGM Host feature has been removed. Use of this feature is not recommended.
To verify that PGM Host is configured correctly on your router, use the following show commands in
EXEC mode:
• Use the show ip pgm host sessions command to display information about current open PGM
transport sessions:
Router> show ip pgm host sessions
Idx GSI Source Port Type State Dest Port Mcast Address
1 000000000000 0 receiver listen 48059 224.3.3.3
Command Purpose
Router(config)# ip pgm host
Enables PGM Host (both the source and receiver parts of the PGM
network layer) globally on the router and configures the router to
source PGM packets through a vif.
Note You must configure a vif by using the interface vif number
global configuration command on the router before enabling
PGM Host on the router; otherwise, the router will not know
to use the vif to source PGM packets and PGM Host will not
be enabled on the router.
Command Purpose
Step 1
Router(config)# ip pgm host
Enables PGM Host (both the source and receiver part of the PGM
network layer) globally on the router.
Step 2
Router(config)# ip pgm host
source-interface type number
Configures the router to source PGM packets through a physical (or
logical) interface.
