Description

Pim

compound module

Implements the Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) routing protocol for IP multicast. This module integrates both PIM-DM (Dense Mode) and PIM-SM (Sparse Mode) implementations, using a splitter to direct packets to the appropriate mode based on interface configuration. PIM builds distribution trees for efficient multicast data delivery across IP networks.
