Thanks for your mail, i was a bit "overloaded" yesterday
but in the meantime i put the correct addresses on it.

I already configure the lo 0 as sp-de mode otherwise you will an error
message.

Its a bit funny for me, two guys correct me cause i put the wrong
addresses on to the interface, thats fine but nobody can tell
me why i can ping my two multicast addresses from the RP but not
from R4 which is one hop behind the RP.

I ask a few guys but nowbody can give me a locically answer. I can
ask 5 guys and i get 5 different answers even from ccie's........

cheers
Louis

First of all the multicast address range is from

224.0.0.0 through 239.255.255.255

second thing, once you correct the Multicast address,
make sure you have Multicast enabled on the LOOPback 0
of R1 with the command ip pim sparse-dense mode.
