RE: PIM sparse-dense mode

Sami,

As you know, a multicast packet is seen by the interface just like a
broadcast packet. So the router thinks that is a routing protocol packet, or
something else very important, and place this traffic in the broadcast
hardware queue, this Queue is strict priority, so imagine that a Fee of a
Video on Demand been processed at Strict Priority.. Lots of traffic

So the function of NMBA-mode is to reclassify mpacket into the "normal"
hardware queue.

Other thing to consider in Frame-relay multiple access interfaces, is that
when a join message or leave message is received, the frame-relay interface
is treated as a Whole. In a Lan interface (broadcast) the IGMP Querier would
ask if there are any other member

So the important part of ip pim nbma-mode is to treat all join/leave message
separately, and monitor exactly how many devices are listening to a stream
(Outgoing an Interface = OIL).

Remember that PIM NMBA only works with a PIM Sparse Network, PIM Dense mode
does not have the concept of the join/leave messages.

Saludos,
Victor.-

Asunto: PIM sparse-dense mode

Group,

When IP PIM NBMA mode is enabled in sparse-dense mode it gives a warning
that it should not be used in spase-dense mode. In case of NBMA R3 Hub and
R1 and R2 spokes and sparse dense is used.First question can we use IP PIM
NBMA mode in real lab , if not what else ?

- Second question can't we use normal access list if task say deny IGMP
request from 237.1.1.1 or ip igmp filter with profile is required..

Thanks
