Re: Multicast : Auto RP with PIM NBMA mode

Regarding ip dm-fallback.

The default behavior for a router (regardless of interface pim mode
configuration), is to decide that if an RP cannot be found for a particular
group, it will treat this group as dense. If you have the interfaces on the
router configured as sparse-dense, this will enable the router to use sparse
for the groups that it knows an RP for, and dense for the rest. If the
interfaces are set to sparse only, the router will still consider groups
that it does not know an RP for as dense, but will not be able to flood the
dense mode information due to the interface configuration.

The downside to the sparse-dense mode is that if something bad happens to
the RP or RPs, all groups will become dense and that could be catastrophic
for a netork with a lot of multicast goups, so no ip dm-pim fallback allows
you to use sparse-dense mode more safely in that instance.
