[Xorp-users] How configure a multicast static route with xorp_sh ?

[moreauf]

After many try of the proposed solution and some variation, routing  
doesn't work if I don't activate PIM-SM too.
But I search to route multicast stream with only, a static routing  
beetween router 2 and 3,  IGMP beetween router 1 and 2 and IGMP  
beetween 3 and 4.

Thanks ,
Fabien

effectively , I write my case with this syntax error.
