<t>
   This document describes how intra-LIS IP multicast can be efficiently

   supported among routers over ATM without using the Multicast Address

   Resolution Server (MARS). The method described here is specific to

   Sparse Mode PIM [PIM-SM], and relies on the explicit join mechanism

   inherent in PIM-SM to notify routers when they should create group

   specific point-to-multipoint VCs.
