RE: X - Proxy Join Timer Running - Multicast Flag

It was a typo, sorry, on R64s LAN there is a group member.

I will explain again:

Scenario: R2 (hub), R5 and R6 (spokens). The source is (loopback - R5) and
the group member is (LAN - R7) directly connected to R64s LAN. I'm using MRM
manager as multicast generator.

Problem: Multicast traffic only flows for 210 seconds and then it's stopped.
But it starts again after 210 seconds.

Clues:

1.- R2 is also the RP for this group.

2.- R7 always sends the report for 238.1.1.

3.- R6 always receives the report message from R7 and sends the periodic
join-prune message to R2

4.- R6 and R7 never send any leave or prune message.

5.- I also have X flag set for this group on R2 when the traffic flow

R2#sh ip mroute 238.1.1.1

(*, 238.1.1.1), 00:28:55/00:03:22, RP 200.0.0.2, flags: S

  Incoming interface: Null, RPF nbr 0.0.0.0

  Outgoing interface list:

    Serial0/0.256, 150.50.100.6, Forward/Sparse, 00:28:54/00:03:22

(200.0.0.5, 238.1.1.1), 00:28:55/00:03:29, flags: TX

  Incoming interface: Serial0/0.256, RPF nbr 150.50.100.5

  Outgoing interface list:

    Serial0/0.256, 150.50.100.6, Forward/Sparse, 00:01:06/00:02:23

6.- R2 prunes the traffic after 210 seconds (expiration timer), in spite of
receiving the periodic join-prune messages from R6 and forwarding mpacket.

Mar 2 18:26:53.033: PIM: Add Serial0/0.256/150.50.100.6 to (*, 238.1.1.1),
Forward state

Mar 2 18:26:53.037: PIM: Add Serial0/0.256/150.50.100.6 to (200.0.0.5/32,
238.1.1.1)

Mar 2 18:30:23.837: PIM: Prune Serial0/0.256/150.50.100.6 from
(200.0.0.5/32, 238.1.1.1) - deleted

Mar 2 18:30:23.837: PIM: Send v2 Prune on Serial0/0.256 to 150.50.100.5 for
(200.0.0.5/32, 238.1.1.1), S-bit

Mar 2 18:33:50.666: PIM: Add Serial0/0.256/150.50.100.6 to (*, 238.1.1.1),
Forward state

Mar 2 18:33:50.670: PIM: Add Serial0/0.256/150.50.100.6 to (200.0.0.5/32,
238.1.1.1)

7.- The expiration time is over on R2 and the multicast traffic is stopped.

R2#sh ip mroute 238.1.1.1

 (*, 238.1.1.1), 00:31:17/00:02:59, RP 200.0.0.2, flags: S

  Outgoing interface list:

(200.0.0.5, 238.1.1.1), 00:31:17/00:03:29, flags: T

  Incoming interface: Serial0/0.256, RPF nbr 150.50.100.5

  Outgoing interface list:

    Serial0/0.256, 150.50.100.6, Forward/Sparse, 00:03:28/00:00:01

Mar 2 20:16:35.000: MRT: Delete Serial0/0.256/150.50.100.6 from the olist
of (200.0.0.5, 238.1.1.1)

R2#sh ip mroute 238.1.1.1

(*, 238.1.1.1), 00:31:24/00:02:59, RP 200.0.0.2, flags: S

  Incoming interface: Null, RPF nbr 0.0.0.0

  Outgoing interface list:

    Serial0/0.256, 150.50.100.6, Forward/Sparse, 00:31:23/00:02:52

(200.0.0.5, 238.1.1.1), 00:31:24/00:02:59, flags: PT

  Incoming interface: Serial0/0.256, RPF nbr 150.50.100.5

  Outgoing interface list: Null

6.- There are periodic change in the OIL for the group 238.1.1.1 on R2 each
210 seconds

Mar 2 19:59:09.054: MRT: Add/Update Serial0/0.256/150.50.100.6 to the olist
of (200.0.0.5, 238.1.1.1), Forward state

Mar 2 20:02:39.422: MRT: Delete Serial0/0.256/150.50.100.6 from the olist
of (200.0.0.5, 238.1.1.1)

Mar 2 20:06:06.986: MRT: Add/Update Serial0/0.256/150.50.100.6 to the olist
of (200.0.0.5, 238.1.1.1), Forward state

7.- R5 receives a prune message from R2 and prunes the traffic.

Mar 2 18:30:23.840: PIM: Received v2 Join/Prune on Serial0/0 from
150.50.100.2, to us

Mar 2 18:30:23.840: PIM: Prune-list: (200.0.0.5/32, 238.1.1.1)

Mar 2 18:30:23.840: PIM: Schedule to prune Serial0/0 for (200.0.0.5/32,
238.1.1.1)

Questions:

1.- What is purpose of flag X - Proxy Join Timer Running ? I have been
searching without success on the group archive and on the cisco web-site.

2.- why the the expiration timer expired if the mpackets are being forwarded
on R2?
