Brian,
Does "ip pim autorp listener" replace the following commands when auto-rp is
used in PIM-SM?
ip pim accept-rp <default RP address> 1
access-list 1 permit 224.0.1.39
access-list 1 permit 224.0.1.40
PD

Sam,
You can still run auto-rp in a sparse-only network without using the
listener command. All you have to do is manually assign an RP that can
accept join messages for the 224.0.1.39 and 224.0.1.40 groups.
