Which of the following best describes the impact of an RP failure in a PIM ASM network?

• C) No impact at all, as an RP is not required in a PIM ASM network.
• D) The traffic is not impacted if the multicast traffic flows have already been established, and the traffic flow does not involve the RP in the path.
