PIM Dense Mode Example
This example is a configuration of dense-mode PIM on an Ethernet interface:
ip multicast-routing
interface ethernet 0
ip pim dense-mode
PIM Sparse Mode Example
This example is a configuration of sparse-mode PIM. The RP router is the router with the address
10.8.0.20.
ip multicast-routing
ip pim rp-address 10.8.0.20 1
interface ethernet 1
ip pim sparse-mode
Bidirectional PIM Mode Example
By default, a bidirectional RP advertises all groups as bidirectional. Use an access list on the RP to
specify a list of groups to be advertised as bidirectional. Groups with the deny keyword operate in dense
mode. A different, nonbidirectional RP address is required for groups that operate in sparse mode,
because a single access list only allows either a permit or deny keyword.
The following example shows how to configure an RP for both sparse and bidirectional mode groups.
224/8 and 227/8 are bidirectional groups, 226/8 is sparse mode, and 225/8 is dense mode. The RP must
be configured to use different IP addresses for sparse and bidirectional mode operations. Two loopback
