When the Serial 2 has been configured to be BSR, Router D will not be able to
receive the BSR information sent by Router B, which will be excluded from this PIM
domain.

Suppose Host A is the receiver of 225.0.0.1. Host B now begins sending data with
the destination address 225.0.0.1. Router A receives the multicast data sent by
Host B via Router B. When the multicast data rate of Host B exceeds 10kbps,
Router A will be added to the shortest path tree, and the multicast data message
sent by Host B will be received directly from Router C.
Troubleshooting PIM-SM The router cannot correctly establish the multicast routing table.
Follow these steps:
■Use the PIM-SM protocol to configure RP and BSR. First, use the display pim
bsr-info command to check whether there is BSR information. If there is no
such information, check whether there is unicast routing to the BSR. Then, use
the display pim rp-info command to check whether the RP information is
correct. If there is no RP information, check the unicast routing again.
■The display pim neighbor command can be used to check whether the
neighbors have discovered each other.
