Network requirements

z

PIM-DM runs in the network. All switches in the network support multicast.

z

Switch A, Switch B and Switch C run OSPF.

z

Typically, Receiver can receive the multicast data from Source through the path Switch A –

Switch B, which is the same as the unicast route.

z

Perform the following configuration so that Receiver can receive the multicast data from

Source through the path Switch A – Switch C – Switch B, which is different from the unicast

route.
