PIM Multicast Routing
– 1272 –
u
Dense-mode interfaces are subject to multicast flooding by default, and
are only removed from the multicast routing table when the router
determines that there are no group members or downstream routers,
or when a prune message is received from a downstream router.
u
Sparse-mode interfaces forward multicast traffic only if a join message
is received from a downstream router or if group members are directly
connected to the interface. When routers want to receive a multicast
flow, they periodically send join messages to the Rendezvous Point
(RP), and are subsequently added to the shared path for the specified
flow back up to the RP. If routers want to join the source path up
through the Shortest Path Source Tree (SPT), they periodically send
join messages toward the source. They also send prune messages
toward the RP to prune the shared path if they have already connected
to the source through the SPT, or if there are no longer any group
members connected to the interface.

neighboring PIM router before declaring it dead. Use the no form to restore
the default value.
