//
// Implementation of PIM-SM protocol (RFC 4601).
//
// PIM-SM is a multicast routing protocol which
// build a shared multicast forwarding three rooted at a Rendezvous Point (RP)
// per group, and a source specific forwarding trees from the sources to the RP.
// It is also capable to switch to a shortest path tree, so that traffic from
// sources to receivers do not have to pass through the RP.
//
// The module must access the ~PIMInterfaceTable and ~PIMNeighbortable
// modules, their path is given as the 'pimInterfaceTableModule' and
// 'pimNeighborTableModule' parameters.
//
// The 'RP' parameter specifies the address of the Rendezvous Point.
// Currently only one global RP is supported.
//
// If there are multiple PIM routers on a multi-access LAN, only one
// of them will be responsible for forwarding datagrams to the LAN.
// This will be the router with the highest IP address except if
// all routers has 'designatedRouterPriority' set, in which case
// the highest priority wins (or highest IP address on ties).
//
// Other parameters set the time constants to the values specified
// in RFC 4601. They should not be changed except for testing.
//
// Limitations:
// - Only one global RP is supported and it must be specified statically.
//   PIM Bootstrap and RP discovery is not yet implemented.
// - Switchover to the shortest path tree is not supported.
// - Source specific excludes in the shared tree are not supported.
