PIM/4/HW_UPSTREAM_NOPIM
Message
PIM/4/HW_UPSTREAM_NOPIM:In the VPN instance, PIM is not enabled on the upstream interface. (VPNName=[VPNName], IfName=[IfName], DestAddr=[DestAddr])
Description
PIM selects the interface as the inbound interface of the PIM entry according to a unicast route. The interface, however, does not support PIM. So the device cannot generate complete PIM entries and cannot send PIM Join messages to the upstream interface. As a result, traffic diversion fails.

DestAddr |
Destination address |
Possible Causes
PIM selects the interface as the inbound interface of the PIM entry according to a unicast route. The interface, however, does not support PIM.
Procedure
- Obtain the interface information according to this log
and determine whether the interface supports pim sm.
- If the interface supports pim sm and multicast traffic passing through
this interface complies with the planning, run the pim sm command on the
interface to enable PIM. Then, check whether multicast entries are
normal.
- If so, go to Step 4.
- If not, go to Step 3.
- If the interface does not support pim sm, go to Step 2.
- If the interface supports pim sm and multicast traffic passing through
this interface complies with the planning, run the pim sm command on the
interface to enable PIM. Then, check whether multicast entries are
normal.
- Configure a static unicast route to the multicast source or RP and ensure that the outbound interface specified in this route supports pim sm. Then, run the pim sm command on the outbound interface.
- Collect alarm information and configuration information, and then contact technical support personnel.
- End.
