Static RP

All,

In IP Multicast, when you configure sparse mode with a Static RP, and the RP address be a loopback address of any router. I believe it is not a necessity to enable pim on the loopback address of the RP. My question is, if in the lab, and you were presented with this and you didnt enable pim on the loopback address of the RP, as their are two ways to configure with PIM enabled or not. How would it be marked, would it be with a show run, to find out if the RP has PIM enabled or would a connectivity check be carried out to verify the outcome. Also would both solutions be acceptable if their is not explicit instructions in the question to enable pim on the loopback address

Cheers in advance

Darren
