<div>I will do a debug and let you know the results, for the PIM SSM related issues.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>With respect to the PIM register issue, i had this topology</div>
<div> </div>
<div>if1------x1,x2---------if2</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I mentioned if2 as the RP on XORP router(x1 and x2 represent the XORP interfaces and if1 and if2 are interfaces on my machine), the register_vif takes IP address of interface x1.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I am sending a UDP data packet from if1 to <a href="http://225.1.1.1">225.1.1.1</a>, and I am capturing packets on if2 using ethereal, but no PIM Register packets are arriving on if2.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I am receiving PIM hello on both if1 and if2.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Also, I dont need to send PIM hello from if1 and if2 as it is not required since PIM Registers are unicast.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Am i missing something.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Regards,</div>
