BIDIR-PIM (Bidirectional Protocol Independent Multicast) is used to efficiently forward Broadcast, Unknown unicast, and Multicast (BUM) traffic across the Inter-Pod Network (IPN) in a Cisco ACI Multi-Pod environment. It helps in scaling the control plane by optimizing the distribution of multicast traffic.
