A-6 APPENDIX A: IP MULTICAST ROUTING

 

Example:

 

Select IP stack by slot (2,3,7,9-12all) [12]:

 

Enter an IP interface index [1]: 2

 

Enter Interface DVMRP metric [1]: 1

 

Enter Interface TTL threshold [1]:

 

Enter interface rate limit in KBits/sec [0]:

 

 

Administering

A multicast tunnel allows multicast packets to cross several unicast routers

Multicast Tunnels

to a destination router that supports multicast. A tunnel has two end points.

 

The local end point is associated with an interface on the CoreBuilder router.

 

When you define the tunnel, you specify the associated index on the local

 

CoreBuilder router and then the characteristics of the tunnel. Tunnel

 

characteristics are the same as those of an interface. You also specify the IP

 

address of the remote multicast router.

 

Not all multicast configurations require a tunnel. The only configurations

 

that require a tunnel are those that require a connection between two

 

multicast internetworks through one or more unicast routers.

Displaying
