PIM (Protocol Independent Multicast) is a routing protocol used to enable multicast traffic to be routed over a network. It works by building a distribution tree which consists of a core of routers – called the Rendezvous Point (RP) – that are responsible for routing multicast traffic. PIM works with a variety of unicast routing protocols such as OSPF and BGP to establish the distribution tree and keep it up to date.
