Whilst not answering your question specifically, I've always found the series of article written by Peter J. Welcher of the Chesapeake Netscaftsmen a good reference for multicast (fairly easy to read and understand). http://www.netcraftsmen.net/resources/archived-articles/436-the-protocols-of-ip-multicast.html http://www.netcraftsmen.net/resources/archived-articles/376-pim-dense-mode.html http://www.netcraftsmen.net/resources/archived-articles/424-pim-sparse-mode.html http://www.netcraftsmen.net/resources/archived-articles/375-ip-multicast-and-pim-rendezvous-points.html regards, Tony. _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
