Chapter 42 Configuring IP Multicast Routing

Configuring IP Multicast Routing

 

Command

Purpose

Step 1

 

 

configure terminal

Enter global configuration mode.

Step 2

 

 

ip pim rp-address ip-address

Configure the address of a PIM RP.

 

[access-list-number] [override]

By default, no PIM RP address is configured. You must configure the IP

 

 

 

 

address of RPs on all routers and multilayer switches (including the RP).

 

 

If there is no RP configured for a group, the switch treats the group as

 

 

dense, using the dense-mode PIM techniques.

 

 

A PIM device can be an RP for more than one group. Only one RP address

 

 

can be used at a time within a PIM domain. The access-list conditions

 

 

specify for which groups the device is an RP.

 

 

For ip-address, enter the unicast address of the RP in dotted-decimal

 

 

notation.

 

 

(Optional) For access-list-number, enter an IP standard access list

 

 

number from 1 to 99. If no access list is configured, the RP is used for

 

 

all groups.

 

 

(Optional) The override keyword means that if there is a conflict

 

 

between the RP configured with this command and one learned by

 

 

Auto-RP or BSR, the RP configured with this command prevails.

Step 3

 

 

access-listaccess-list-number {deny

Create a standard access list, repeating the command as many times as

 

permit} source [source-wildcard]

necessary.

 

 

For access-list-number, enter the access list number specified in

 

 

Step 2.

 

 

The deny keyword denies access if the conditions are matched. The

 

 

permit keyword permits access if the conditions are matched.

 

 

For source, enter the multicast group address for which the RP should

 

 

be used.

 

 

(Optional) For source-wildcard, enter the wildcard bits in dotted

 

 

decimal notation to be applied to the source. Place ones in the bit

 

 

positions that you want to ignore.

 

 

Recall that the access list is always terminated by an implicit deny

 

 

statement for everything.

Step 4

 

 

end

Return to privileged EXEC mode.

Step 5

 

 

show running-config

Verify your entries.

Step 6

 

 

copy running-config startup-config

(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.

 

 

 

To remove an RP address, use the no ip pim rp-addressip-address[access-list-number] [override] global configuration command.

This example shows how to configure the address of the RP to 147.106.6.22 for multicast group 225.2.2.2 only:

Switch(config)# access-list 1 permit 225.2.2.2 0.0.0.0

Switch(config)# ip pim rp-address 147.106.6.22 1
