Hi Group,
I am reading Williams Multicast book and has some questions
"ip pim nbma mode only support pim sparse mode, and dense mode will not work properly on P2M NBMA networks(Frame Relay)"
(Q1)Guys do we have to use ip pim nbma command on multicast over frame cloud.
(Q2)Is this command only works with sparse mode or will it works with sparse dese mode too.
(Q3)If you use auto-rp, you need a dense mode component(sparse dense mode) for rp candidate to talk to mapping agent. When mapping agent is configured on the hub router(of NBMA) and if RP candidates are configured on the spokes what is the pim mode to configure on the frame cloud(Do we have to create a loopback on the rp candidate and enable sparse-dense mode)
In the above situation, can we configure sparse mode on the frame cloud(serial interfaces) and sparse dense mode on the loop back interface of RP candidate.
(Q4.)What is the easiest way do determine that we need static mroute command on the multicast routers.
group sorry for long list of questions. Answers from group experts are appreciated
thanks
Mani
