◆ To fully enable PIM, you need to enable multicast routing globally for
the router with the ip multicast-routing command, enable PIM globally
for the router with the router pim command, and also enable PIM-DM
or PIM-SM for each interface that will participate in multicast routing
with this command.
◆ If you enable PIM on an interface, you should also enable IGMP on that
interface. PIM mode selection determines how the switch populates the
multicast routing table, and how it forwards packets received from
directly connected LAN interfaces.Dense mode interfaces are always
added to the multicast routing table. Sparse mode interfaces are added
only when periodic join messages are received from downstream
routers, or a group member is directly connected to the interface.
◆ Dense-mode interfaces are subject to multicast flooding by default, and
are only removed from the multicast routing table when the router
