I bet the Alona would choose the answer that involves the most flooding. The more traffic, the merrier!

Hmm, I'm stumped. Maybe I should've paid more attention in my PIM-SM class. This is trickier than I thought.

Nah, I'm going with C. The RP flooding traffic out of all PIM interfaces sounds like the way to go. Why limit the receiver, right?

I agree with you, C seems like the most efficient way to handle traffic in a PIM-SM environment.

I'm not sure, I think A might be a better choice. The receiver can request specific traffic from the RP.

I think the answer is A, because the receiver requests its desired traffic from the RP.
