their DRs to express their interest in the multicast information that the multicast source S sends to
the multicast group G.
After receiving a report message, the DR first checks whether the group address in this message is
in the SSM group range and does the following:
If the group address is in the SSM group range, the DR sends a subscribe message hop by hop
toward the multicast source S. All routers along the path from the DR to the source create an (S,
G) entry to build an SPT. The SPT is rooted at the multicast source S and has the receivers as
its leaves. This SPT is the transmission channel in PIM-SSM.
If the group address is not in the SSM group range, the receiver-side DR sends a (*, G) join
message to the RP. The multicast source registers with the source-side DR.
In PIM-SSM, the term "subscribe message" refers to a join message.

Relationship among PIM protocols

In a PIM network, PIM-DM cannot run together with PIM-SM, BIDIR-PIM, or PIM-SSM. However,
PIM-SM, BIDIR-PIM, and PIM-SSM can run together.
