Assume that Host A needs to receive the information addressed to a multicast
group G (225.1.1.1/24). After multicast source S (10.110.5.100/24) sends
multicast packets to the multicast group G, an SPT is established through traffic
flooding. Switches on the SPT path (Switch A and Switch D) have their (S, G)
entries. Host A registers with Switch A, and a (*, G) entry is generated on Switch
A. You can use the display pim routing-table command to view the PIM routing
table information on each switch. For example:
# View the PIM routing table information on Switch A.
<SwitchA> display pim routing-table
