Chapter 43 Ipv4 Multicast Protocol

43-41

2 Destination Control

We want to limit users with address in 10.0.0.0/8 network segment from entering the group of 238.0.0.0/8, so

we can make the following configuration:

Firstly enable IGMP snooping in the VLAN it is located (Here it is assumed to be in VLAN2)

EC(config)#ip igmp snooping

EC(config)#ip igmp snooping vlan 2

After that, configure relative destination control access-list, and configure specified IP address to use that

access-list.

Switch(config)#access-list 6000 deny ip any 238.0.0.0 0.255.255.255

Switch(config)#access-list 6000 permit ip any any

Switch(config)#multicast destination-control

Switch(config)#ip multicast destination-control 10.0.0.0/8 access-group 6000

In this way, users of this network segment can only join groups other than 238.0.0.0/8.

3 Multicast strategy

Server 210.1.1.1 is distributing important multicast data on group 239.1.2.3, we can configure on its join-in

switch as follows:

Switch(config)#ip multicast policy 210.1.1.1/32 239.1.2.3/32 cos 4

In this way, the multicast stream will have a priority of value 4 (Usually this is pretty higher, the higher possible

one is protocol data; if higher priority is set, when there is too many multicast data, it might cause abnormal

behavior of the switch protocol) when it gets to other switches through this switch.

43.8.4 DCSCM Troubleshooting

The effect of DCSCM module itself is similar to ACL, and the problems occurred are usually related to

improper configuration. Please read the descriptions above carefully. If you still can not determine the cause

of the problem, please send your configurations and the effects you expect to the after-sale service staff of our

company.

43.9 IGMP

43.9.1 Introduction to IGMP

IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) is the protocol in TCP/IP protocol family which is responsible for

IP multicast member management. It is used to set up and maintain multicast group member relationship

between IP host and its neighbor multicast switches. IGMP does not include the spread and maintenance of
