Abstract:
When a PIM router reboots, either because of uncontrolled
failover or because of ISSU, it needs to reconcile the
PIM entries. For this, rebooting router sends PIM hello with
new GenId. In reponse, neighbors send a new hello and replay
PIM J/P message. Regardless an application maintaing full mroute
states, the rebooting route must wait for this replay to complete
only after which it can mark the oif reconciliation complete.
This process is undeterministic today. This draft proposes a
new mechanism to achieve a faster reconcilaition time. For this
a new Hello option and a new message type has been introduced.
