Hi,

For your current question, there is no extra configuration required, (I mean
not required to configure the ip pim nbma-mode) .

1) The rp-agent(Rouetr-B) directly connect to the mapping agent
(Rouetr-A Hub), as long as mapping agent manage to receive the RP-announce
packet (224.0.1.39), other router (Router-C) in this network don't need to
learn this packet

2) The mapping-agent directly connected other client pim routers
(RouterB and RouterC). So the mapping agent message (224.0.1.40) just out
from it,s serial interface, so no tunneling or ip pim nbma-mode required
for this task.

When you issue "show ip pim rp-mapping" you will the Router B will be RP

For example in other way: if Router B is the mapping agent and Router A is
the RP, then you will have problem. The router A manage to receive the
224.0.1.40 packet through the serial interface, but it won't send out
through same interface to router c

So in this case we need tunneling from the router B to router C. because the
224.0.139 and 224.0.140 packet are dense mode packet.

Regards.
