Hi All,

I am having a bit of trouble understanding (S,G) entries in PIM-SM. I know that the (*,G) entries points toward the RP, but will the (S,G) entries in routers always point toward the source (after a SPT switchover)? Even though my material states that SM routes based on (*,G) entries, it would seem to me, that the (*,G) entries are used in SM to create the actual (S,G) entries? Are there any command to disable the SPT switchover completely, so I could see if the (*,G) entries alone could route the traffic?

Wish i could explain it better.

Thanks for all the help,

Sincerely,
Kim Pedersen
