Multicast PIM Sparse-Dense Mode

Hello Jason

If your topology only consists of a single router with two VLANs, then DENSE mode would be preferable. Arguably, this is the simplest mechanism as it doesn’t require an RP (since you only have one router). In such a case, dense mode forwards multicast traffic on all interfaces until we are requested to stop forwarding. For more info on dense mode, take a look at the following:

I hope this has been helpful!
