Any idea if folks use AH or ESP to protect IGMP/PIM packets

What are you trying to 'protect' them against?

Just integrity protection to ensure that my reports, etc. are not
mangled when i recv them. OR to make sure that i only receive
reports/leaves from the folks who are supposed to send them.

Please note that i am NOT interested in encrypting the control traffic.
