Hey,

sorry for this basic question . on a router if i have 3 ethernet and 1 loop
back interface with sparse-mode enabled. When i ping from the serial
interface across the FR cloud
how does the multicast choose the source interface.

when i do debug ip mpacket i can see for different ping chooses different
ether/lo interfaces

What is the logic?

BB
