Multicast hello packets

Hi Everyone,

Any help appreciated on this:-

I have a multicast problem:

R2 -----------R4 is a RP (150.50.4.4) with a multicast source 150.50.40.8
|
|
Frame Cloud ------ R6
||
R5

R2 ,R4 - 12.2.15(T)
R5, R6 - 12.2 1 LD

------------------------------------------------------------------------

R4 Config : R4 forwards the multicast packets to R2 but R2 does not
forward them to R5 and R6 inspite of configuring 'ip pim nbma-mode' on R2 ?

Debugging messages at the end .

As you can see R2 is receiving multicast packets from R4 and forwarding them

I configured ' ip pim nbma-mode' but. I am not sure why it does not
forward it to R5 and R6

Anyone knows what this option 20 is ? I can't find this in CCO

 
Thanks,
