OS10 BGP unnumbered combined with PIM.

Is PIM supported in combination with BGP unnumbered on OS10?

As expected PIM works with BGP and static IPV4 adressing on the interconnecting interfaces, but when I switch to unnumbered interfaces the prune/join or BSR election messages don't arrive at the other router as the unnumbered adresses don't show up as PIM neighbours. Am I forgetting something or is it simply not supported yet in OS10?

Hardware:

S5248

Z9264

Config:

interface vlan1200

Hi,

 

While PIM (Protocol Independent Multicast) can technically work with a BGP unnumbered interface to simplify IP addressing on point-to-point links only, for OS10. 

 

Ref: https://dell.to/3ZzZii0.

 

I have spoken to with one of my co-worker in networking, and if you have issues with BGP unnumbered on point to point links, may need to suggest contacting the support to raise a case for a remote session to check on the configuration. This is something we can't help through this forum without the intervention of support case.

If its supported I will further investigate my config. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't trying to beat a dead horse.
