Multicast PIM-SM Question - Two Way Multicast ??

RouterOS Forwarding Protocols
1

I have two devices that communicate via multicast (RoIP) to each other. They reside on different subnets and in different locations. I have been successful communicating “one-way” using an IGMP-Proxy. It works great. Problem is, they need to communicate with each other (two-way), using the same multicast address but different Multicast Ports.

As I had said, I’ve been able to accomplish this (one-way) by using an IGMP-Proxy, but I was wondering if two-way could be accomplished using the current ROS PIM-SM. I should point out that I have also successfully accomplished two-way communication using VPN-PPTP and BCP but currently I’m currently working with IPSec and wanted to accomplish this without the use of Bridging and also, by using some form of PIM.

Here is a link to the device:

for two way communication you will have to use PIM-SM that is in RouterOS. IGMP-Proxy is only viable if it is one way communication and there is no way to tell it to act in different way that it is doing already.

With PIM you can configure what you need and i suppose they are doing (S,G) join, so there should be no problem them communicating with each other.
