Summary
Protocol Independent Multicast - Sparse Mode (PIM-SM or PIM) enables RouterOS to support multicast streaming over the network area. Several configured PIM routers will make a multicast cloud where client devices can use IGMP to manage stream subscriptions. PIM should be used when the network topology is complex or stream sources are connected to a multicast cloud. Continuous cloud must have configured a unique rendezvous point for multicast groups and other participants should know how to reach the rendezvous point. In a simple case where on the part of the network only potential clients may reside and there are no stream sources, then IGMP proxy can be used instead to preserve resources.
