I think that would highly depend on your scenario or other requirements.
That's kinda like asking whether I should use 10 meg ethernet or 100 meg
ethernet when connnecting to a Dell server versus a Compaq?!?! :)

Just be aware of what the implications of each mode are and what turning
them on will mean to your network/bandwidth usage.

There's no pat answer though! (Look up the added functionality of
nbma-mode as well)

HTH,

Hi, Group,
In terms of multicast, what mode should I use for an NBMA network, ip
pim sparse-mode or ip pim sparse-dense-mode? I prefer to use ip pim
sparse-dense-mode, because the command enables us to any mode available.

Many thanks,
