Hi everybody
I have a router configure with pim dense mode and when I used some command to verify the operation I can see that the router show joining to multicast group 224.0.1.40. Can anybody tell me why?

The other strange thing is that the show ip pim autorp the output show AutoRP enabled, is posible disable it?
RA#
RA#sh ip pim autorp
AutoRP Information:
AutoRP is enabled.
PIM AutoRP Statistics: Sent/Received
RP Announce: 0/0, RP Discovery: 0/0

Thank a lot.

Hi David,
The 224.0.1.40 group is the Cisco-RP-Discovery group. This is a reserved multicast group in the Auto-RP system that is used to propagate information about existing rendezvous points and group-to-RP mappings. This group always works in the dense mode and that is probably the reason why you see your router being subscribed to it even though you have configured PIM-DM as your multicast routing protocol that does not need RPs.
Regarding the possibility of deactivate Auto-RP, Laurent Aubert answers this question in this thread:
https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/3035054#3035054
In short, you need a recent IOS version to be able to deactivate the Auto-RP, otherwise, it is permanently active.
Best regards,
Peter
