Abstract:
Each Protocol Independent Multicast - Sparse Mode (PIM-SM) router in a PIM
domain that supports Any Source Multicast (ASM) maintains Group-to-RP mappings that are used to
identify a Rendezvous Point (RP) for a specific multicast group. PIM-SM has defined an
algorithm to choose a RP from the Group-to-RP mappings learned using various mechanisms. This
algorithm does not consider the PIM mode and the mechanism through which a Group-to-RP
mapping was learned.
