versions of PIM-DM. Version 2 does not use IGMP messages; instead, it uses a message that is encapsulated
in IP packets with protocol number 103. In Version 2, the Hello message is introduced in place of the query
message. PIM-DM is appropriate for:
•
Densely distributed receivers
•
A ratio of few senders-to-many receivers (due to frequent flooding)
•
High volume of multicast traffic
•
Constant stream of traffic
The following example describes how to configure and use PIM-DM.
