Enabling and Dis- abling Glo- bal IP Multicast

Configur- ing PIM— Dense Mode by Port

The Multicast Configuration menu contains commands to configure IP Multicast Routing. The IAD only displays the Multicast Configuration menu when DHCP Server is enabled, and the IAD has been reset.

When you have completed multicast configuration, reset the IAD for the changes to take effect.

To enable or disable global IP Multicasting, follow these steps:

1.Type E to select Enable/Disable Global IP Multicasting.

2.The IAD displays the status and prompt:

Multicast Router is currently DISABLED Enter E to Enable, D to Disable:

Type E to enable IP multicasting, or type D to disable it.

3.The IAD saves the new configuration and displays the Multicast Configuration menu.

4.Reset the IAD (page 14) for changes to take effect.

You must enable Multicast Routing to send, receive and route IP multicast packets. Otherwise, multicast packets are dropped automatically.

Type P to configure Protocol-Independent Multicast (PIM) version dense mode by port and interface.

1.The IAD displays the available interfaces and a prompt:

Available Interfaces:

1.G2237 xDSL

2.10/100BaseT Ethernet

0.(Abort)

Selection:

Type the option number to select the interface.

2.The IAD displays the port table for this interface and prompts for a port.

Type the port to configure and press Enter.

3.The IAD displays the PIM status for this port and a prompt:

PIM-DM over G2237 xDSL Port 1 is currently DISABLED Enter E to Enable, D to Disable:

Type E to enable PIM on this port, or type D to disable it.

4.The IAD saves the new configuration and displays the Multicast Configuration menu.

5.Reset the IAD (page 14) for changes to take effect.
