Protocol Overview

PIM-SM initially uses unidirectional shared trees to forward multicast traffic; that is, all multicast traffic must flow only from the rendezvous point (RP) to the receivers.

After a receiver receives traffic from the RP, PM-SM switches to SPT to forward multicast traffic. Every multicast group has an RP and a unidirectional shared tree (group-specific shared tree).
