Question 1:For redundancy, I would configure all the routers with Auto-RP and in the {int} statement, I would put the local loopback in each router?
Question 2: So it is called Bidirectional because the same interface, the RPF interface, is used to both send multicast traffic and receive multicast traffic to and from the RP? The difference from the unidirectional nature of PIM-ASM is that an interface can send traffic, because one tree is created, and another interface could receive the traffic, from another created tree?
