//
// Implementation of PIM-DM protocol (RFC 3973).
//
// PIM-DM is a multicast routing protocol which is designed
// for networks where the receivers are densely distributed.
// PIM-DM initially floods the multicast datagrams to all areas
// of the network. If some areas of the network do not have
// group members, then they will be pruned off the forwarding tree.
//
// The prune state of a branch must be confirmed periodically,
// otherwise the forwarding restarts automatically. The router
// can also cancel the prune by sending a Graft message.
//
// The module must access the ~PimInterfaceTable and ~PimNeighborTable
// modules, their path is given as the `pimInterfaceTableModule` and
// `pimNeighborTableModule` parameters.
//
// Other parameters are timer values from the specification.
// They should not be modified except for testing purposes.
