Hi all,

-04 draft in sec 4.7.1 says

[>>> If RPF_interface(S) is not an interface in the PIM-SM domain, the packet cannot be originated into the PIM domain at this router, and the PIM-SM component of the PMBR will not process the packet. <<<]

does that mean PIM-SM will not process packets coming on interfaces not owned by it ? 
or is it saying we should check if the RPF_interface(S) is in PIM-SM domain for such (S,G) creation events ?

the next line starts with "Otherwise" implying 
"If RPF_interface(S) is an interface in the PIM-SM domain .." 

What was intended by those two lines ? 

pls clarify.

TIA,
shankar
