Analysis

If the multicast static route is not configured or updated correctly to match the current network

conditions, the route entry and the configuration information of multicast static route do not exist in
the multicast routing table.

If a better route is found, the multicast static route may also fail.

Solution

Step1

Use the display multicast routing-table static config command to view the detailed

configuration information of multicast static routes to verify that the multicast static route has been

correctly configured and the route entry exists.

Step2

Use the display multicast routing-table static command to view the information of multicast
static routes to verify that the multicast static route has been correctly configured and the route entry exists

in the multicast routing table.

Step3

8Check the type of the next hop interface of the multicast static route. If the interface is not a

point-to-point interface, be sure to specify the next hop address for the outgoing interface when you
configure the multicast static route.

Step4

Check that the multicast static route matches the specified routing protocol. If a protocol was specified in
multicast static route configuration, enter the display ip routing-table command to check if an

identical route was added by the protocol.

Step5

Check that the multicast static route matches the specified routing policy. If a routing policy was specified
when the multicast static route was configured, enter the display route-policy command to check the

configured routing policy.

Multicast Data Fails to Reach Receivers

Symptom

The multicast data can reach some routers but fails to reach the last-hop router.

Analysis

If a multicast forwarding boundary has been configured through the multicast boundary command,
any multicast packet will be kept from crossing the boundary.

Solution

Step1

Use the display pim routing-table command to check whether the corresponding (S, G) entries
exist on the router. If so, the router has received the multicast data; otherwise, the router has not received

the data.

Step2

Use the display multicast boundary command to view the multicast boundary information on the
interfaces. Use the multicast boundary command to change the multicast forwarding boundary
setting.

Step3

In the case of PIM-SM, use the display current-configuration command to check the BSR and RP
information.
