[SwitchB] ip rpf-route-static 50.1.1.100 24 20.1.1.2

Verifying the configuration

# Use the display multicast rpf-info command to view the information about the RPF route to Source

on Switch B.

[SwitchB] display multicast rpf-info 50.1.1.100

RPF information about source 50.1.1.100:

RPF interface: Vlan-interface101, RPF neighbor: 20.1.1.2

Referenced route/mask: 50.1.1.0/24

Referenced route type: multicast static

Route selection rule: preference-preferred

Load splitting rule: disable

The output shows that the RPF route on Switch B has changed. It is now the configured static
multicast route, and the RPF neighbor is now Switch C.

Network requirements

As shown in

Figure 28

, PIM-DM runs in the network and all switches in the network support IP multicast.

Switch B and Switch C run OSPF, and have no unicast routes to Switch A. Typically, Receiver can receive

the multicast data from Source 1 in the OSPF domain.
Perform the following configuration so that Receiver can receive multicast data from Source 2, which is

outside the OSPF domain.

Configuration procedure

1.

Configure the IP address and subnet mask for each interface as shown in

Figure 28

. (Details not

shown.)

2.

Enable OSPF on Switch B and Switch C to make sure the network-layer is interoperable between
Switch B and Switch C and their routing information can be dynamically updated. (Details not

shown.)

3.

Enable IP multicast routing, and enable PIM-DM and IGMP:
