Should PIM-DM or PIM-SM be used? If you are using PIM-SM, where should rendezvous points be placed? How should routers and links be provisioned to support IP multicast?

ARCH v IP Multicast Design Recommendations IP addressing –Use multicast limited scope addresses (unless IP multicast traffic originates outside the enterprise). Security –Protect IP multicast traffic from denial-of-service attacks or stream hijacking by rogue sources and/or rogue rendezvous points.

ARCH v Summary When designing a network for IP multicast, you will want to consider the servers and hosts, IP multicast control mechanisms, PIM mode, and router provisioning. In a small campus design with a collapsed core and distribution layer, the backbone switches act as the rendezvous points for multicast forwarding. IP multicast design for a large campus needs to balance between granular administrative control and simplicity. When IP multicast traffic is to cross a WAN link, the primary consideration is that the WAN bandwidth not be overwhelmed by unnecessary traffic.
