Tom,
YUP! Admin scoping refers to applying multicast border filters. The idea
behind RFC 2365 is that the parts of the 239/8 space are reserved for local,
site, organization and global reach. This attempts to standardize addresses
that should be permitted/denied at various boundaries.

Bob,
Thanks.
When you referred to adminstrative scoping, you meant making a boundary?
ie deny what you dont want and permit rest by using ip multicast boundary
acl command?

Tom,
I believe I can confirm your understanding of TTL scoping. The router
compares the ttl in the packet to the configured interface ttl threshold.
The ttl in the packet must exceed the threshold value in order for the
packet to exit the interface.
By combining starting ttl values with interface threshold values, you can
limit the extent of some multicasts while allowing other multicasts (with
higher starting ttls) to transit.
Another method of achieving a similar result is "administrative scoping",
documented in rfc 2365. Rather than relying on ttl, you reserve address
spaces for different scopes and filter the addresses on the border
interfaces.
