Port Mirroring - D-Link DES-3326 Bedienungsanleitung

The Protocol Independent Multicast – Dense Mode (PIM-DM) protocol should be used in networks with
a low delay (low latency) and high bandwidth as PIM-DM is optimized to guarantee delivery of multicast
packets, not to reduce overhead.
The PIM-DM multicast routing protocol is assumes that all downstream routers want to receive
multicast messages and relies upon explicit prune messages from downstream routers to remove
branches from the multicast delivery tree that do not contain multicast group members.
PIM-DM has no explicit 'join' messages. It relies upon periodic flooding of multicast messages to all
interfaces and then either waiting for a timer to expire (the Join/Prune Interval) or for the downstream
routers to transmit explicit 'prune' messages indicating that there are no multicast members on their
respective branches. PIM-DM then removes these branches ('prunes' them) from the multicast delivery
tree.
Because a member of a pruned branch of a multicast delivery tree may want to join a multicast delivery
group (at some point in the future), the protocol periodically removes the 'prune' information from its
database and floods multicast messages to all interfaces on that branch. The interval for removing
'prune' information is the Join/Prune Interval.
