Hi Folks!
I know two things about the subj.
1. It is designed to treat join-leave messages separately for NBMA
serial interfaces with PIM sparse mode.
2. It is designed to re-classify multicast packets to go via normal
hardware queue out of serial interface. It is also said that there is a
special "broadcast hardware queue" for serial interfaces, and multicast
is treated as a broadcast, which might make this to be an issue for slow
serial links.
The second thing rises a kind of doubts ... I have checked available
books and CCO and couldn't find any references regarding "broadcast
hardware queue on serial interfaces".
Would appreciate any hints here.
A.
