Refer to the exhibit. The network has EIGRP configured on all routers and has converged on the routes advertised. PIM sparse mode has been also configured on all routers. The routers between the source and the rendezvous point (RP) have (S,G) state in the multicast routing table and the routers between the RP and the receivers have (*,G) state in their multicast routing tables.

  • The traffic will flow via source tree from the source to the RP and via shared tree from the RP to the receivers.
  • The traffic will flow via source tree from the source to the receivers.
  • The traffic will flow via shared tree from the source to the RP and via shared tree from the RP to the receivers.
