Protocol-independent multicast sparse mode (PIM-SM) is used to efficiently route multicast
traffic to multicast groups that can span wide area networks where bandwidth is a constraint.

Figure 59. PIM-SM
PIM-SM uses shared trees by default and implements source-based trees for efficiency; it
assumes that no hosts want the multicast traffic unless they specifically ask for it. It creates a
shared distribution tree centered on a defined rendezvous point (RP). Traffic from this source
is relayed to the receivers. Senders first send the multicast data to the RP, which in turn
sends the data down the shared tree to the receivers. Shared trees centered on an RP do not
necessarily provide the shortest, most optimal path. In such cases PIM-SM provides a means
to switch to more efficient source-specific trees. A data threshold rate is defined for toggling
between trees. PIM-SM uses a bootstrap router (BSR), which advertises information to other
