Dear All,
Do this version of PIM-sm works on flat network.
F.Y.I.
A flat network is a network in which all workstations are directly
connected to each other, except for the presence of switches and can
communicate without the need for intermediate devices such as Routers. A
flat network is one without subnets,as a result,its topology is not
divided into layers or modules.Every station on a flat network receives
a copy of every message sent.Security is poor and it is not possible to
establish alternative paths to destinations.

But as the network is very huge we are using routers for communication.
Thanks in advance.Your help will be appreciated.
