z A multicast packet from Source arrives to VLAN-interface 1 of Switch C, and the corresponding
forwarding entry does not exist in the multicast forwarding table of Switch C. Switch C performs an
RPF check, and finds in its unicast routing table that the outgoing interface to 192.168.0.0/24 is
VLAN-interface 2. This means that the interface on which the packet actually arrived is not the RPF
interface. The RPF check fails and the packet is discarded.
