Hi Mani,

as far as Im aware it is possible to multicast over the topology you
describe when Ip Pim NBMA mode is used on the interface of the HUB. Try this
out and see!

becase R1 hub will not send and receive multicast over same interface. My
assumption is we need GRE tunnel interface between both spokes to overcome
this situation, but to my surprise I was able to ping the 224.24.24.24 from
other spoke, R3. Any explanation is appreciated.
