  |  | 
Provides
  information about the entry.  | 
  |  | 
Entry
  is operating in dense mode.  | 
  |  | 
Entry
  is operating in sparse mode.  | 
  |  | 
A
  member of the multicast group is present on the directly connected interface.
   | 
  |  | 
The
  router itself is a member of the multicast group.  | 
  |  | 
Route
  has been pruned. The Cisco IOS software keeps this information in case a
  downstream member wants to join the source.  | 
  |  | 
Indicates
  that the (S, G) entry is pointing toward the rendezvous point (RP). The RP is
  typically a prune state along the shared tree for a particular source.  | 
  |  | 
Indicates
  that the software is registering for a multicast source.  | 
  |  | 
Indicates
  that packets have been received on the shortest path source tree.  | 
  |  | 
Indicates
  the outgoing interface is hardware switched because IP multicast MLS is
  enabled.  | 
  |  |  | 
  |  | 
Indicates
  the state of the incoming or outgoing interface.  
• Interface.
  Indicates the type and number of the interface listed in the incoming or
  outgoing interface list. 
• Next-Hop
  or VCD. "Next-hop" specifies the IP address of the downstream
  neighbor. "VCD" specifies the virtual circuit descriptor number.
  "VCD0" means the group is using the static map virtual circuit. 
• State/Mode.
  "State" indicates that packets will either be forwarded, pruned, or
  null on the interface depending on whether there are restrictions due to
  access lists or a time-to-live (TTL) threshold. "Mode" indicates
  whether the interface is operating in dense, sparse, or sparse-dense mode |

(*,
  224.0.255.1)(198.92.37.100/32, 224.0.255.1)
 | 
Entry
  in the IP multicast routing table. The entry consists of the IP address of
  the source router followed by the IP address of the multicast group. An
  asterisk (*) in place of the source router indicates all sources.  
Entries
  in the first format are referred to as (*, G) or "star comma G"
  entries. Entries in the second format are referred to as (S, G) or
  "S comma G" entries. (*, G) entries are used to build (S,
  G) entries.  | 
  |  | 
How
  long (in hours, minutes, and seconds) the entry has been in the IP multicast
  routing table.  | 
  |  | 
How
  long (in hours, minutes, and seconds) until the entry will be removed from
  the IP multicast routing table on the outgoing interface.  | 
  |  | 
Address
  of the rendezvous point router. For routers and access servers operating in
  sparse mode, this address is always 0.0.0.0.  | 
  |  | 
Information
  about the entry.  | 
  |  | 
Expected
  interface for a multicast packet from the source. If the packet is not
  received on this interface, it is discarded.  | 
  |  | 
IP
  address of the upstream router to the source. "Tunneling" indicates
  that this router is sending data to the rendezvous point encapsulated in
  Register packets. The hexadecimal number in parentheses indicates to which
  rendezvous point it is registering. Each bit indicates a different rendezvous
  point if multiple rendezvous points per group are used.  | 
  |  | 
Indicates
  whether the RPF information is obtained from the DVMRP routing table or the
  static mroutes configuration.  | 
  |  | 
Interfaces
  through which packets will be forwarded. When the ip pim nbma-mode
  command is enabled on the interface, the IP address of the PIM neighbor is
  also displayed.  | 
  |  | 
Name
  and number of the outgoing interface.  | 
  |  | 
Next
  hop specifies the IP address of the downstream neighbors. VCD is the virtual
  circuit descriptor number. VCD0 means the group is using the static-map
  virtual circuit.  | 
  |  | 
Indicates
  that packets will be forwarded on the interface if there are no restrictions
  due to access lists or TTL threshold. Following the slash (/) is the mode in
  which the interface is operating (dense or sparse).  | 
  |  | 
Sparse
  mode interface is in forward mode.  | 
  | 
 <time/time>
  (uptime/expiration time)
 | 
Per
  interface, how long (in hours, minutes, and seconds) the entry has been in
  the IP multicast routing table. Following the slash (/) is how long (in
  hours, minutes, and seconds) until the entry will be removed from the IP
  multicast routing table.  |
