Protocol Independent Multicast

Protocol independent multicast (PIM) is a group of multicast routing protocols that provides one-to-many and many-to-many transmission of information. PIM uses routing information from other routing protocols and does not depend on any specific unicast routing protocol. PIM uses any unicast routing protocol that is deployed in the network. OS10 supports the following PIM modes:

  • PIM sparse mode (PIM-SM)
  • PIM source specific multicast (PIM-SSM)
