Dear all,
Some questions about RP
A) If I configure PIM Dense mode, there is no need for RP, because it
will only use source tree (S,G).
B) If I configure PIM Sparse mode, I can either (a) configure RP
manually, or (b) the routers will auto
select a RP according to the multicast traffic. So, in (b) case, I can
assume RP will change, if the multicast
traffic change.
C) If I configure PIM Sparse-Dense mode, I must manually configure RP
for sparse mode group.
Some questions about source tree and share tree building
1) Each routers in the multicast domain will have source tree and/or
share tree?
or only the router one hop next to the host will have source tree, and
only the RP will have share tree?
Thanks a lot.
Best Regards,
Jack
