Fahad,
I recall from a Beau Williamson presentation that there is no inherent
reason that NBMA mode could not be implemented for Dense mode
distribution. Rather, a decision was made not to support it because
Dense mode groups typically have many more interfaces on the OILIST than
groups distributed in Sparse Mode, so there were scaling issues.
