Page 8: Multicast Overview
Multicast overview Introduction to multicast As a technique that coexists with unicast and broadcast, the multicast technique effectively addresses the issue of point-to-multipoint data transmission. By enabling high-efficiency point-to-multipoint data transmission over a network, multicast greatly saves network bandwidth and reduces network load. By using multicast technology, a network operator can easily provide new value-added services, such as live webcasting, web TV, distance learning, telemedicine, web radio, real-time video conferencing, and other bandwidth-critical and time-critical information services.
Page 9 Unicast is not suitable for batch transmission of information. Broadcast In broadcast transmission, the information source sends information to all hosts on the subnet, even if some hosts do not need the information. Figure 2 Broadcast transmission Figure 2, assume that only Host B, Host D, and Host E need the information. If the information is broadcast to the subnet, Host A and Host C also receive it.
Page 10: Multicast Features
Figure 3 Multicast transmission The multicast source sends only one copy of the information to a multicast group. Host B, Host D, and Host E, which are information receivers, must join the multicast group. The routers on the network duplicate and forward the information based on the distribution of the group members. Finally, the information is correctly delivered to Host B, Host D, and Host E.
Page 11: Common Notations In Multicast
For a better understanding of the multicast concept, you can compare multicast transmission to the transmission of TV programs. Table 1 Comparing TV program transmission and multicast transmission TV program transmission Multicast transmission A TV station transmits a TV program through a A multicast source sends multicast data to a multicast channel.
Page 12: Multicast Models
Multicast models Based on how the receivers treat the multicast sources, the multicast models include any-source multicast (ASM), source-filtered multicast (SFM), and source-specific multicast (SSM). ASM model In the ASM model, any sender can send information to a multicast group as a multicast source, and receivers can join a multicast group identified by a group address and get multicast information addressed to that multicast group.

Page 17 Figure 8 Positions of Layer 3 multicast protocols Multicast group management protocols: • Typically, the Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) or Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) protocol is used between hosts and Layer 3 multicast devices that directly connect to the hosts to define how to establish and maintain their multicast group memberships.
Page 18: Multicast Packet Forwarding Mechanism
Figure 9 Positions of Layer 2 multicast protocols IGMP snooping and MLD snooping: • IGMP snooping and MLD snooping are multicast constraining mechanisms that run on Layer 2 devices. They manage and control multicast groups by monitoring and analyzing IGMP or MLD messages exchanged between the hosts and Layer 3 multicast devices, effectively controlling the flooding of multicast data in a Layer 2 network.

Page 20: Configuring Igmp Snooping
Configuring IGMP snooping Overview IGMP snooping enables Layer 2 switches to establish a Layer 2 multicast forwarding table instead of flooding all multicast packets. To populate the Layer 2 multicast forwarding table, IGMP snooping listens to IGMP messages exchanged between a Layer 3 multicast device and hosts. As shown in Figure 10, without IGMP snooping enabled, the Layer 2 switch floods multicast packets to...
Page 21 Figure 11 IGMP snooping related ports The following describes the ports involved in IGMP snooping: Router port—Layer 3 multicast device-side port. Layer 3 multicast devices include designated • routers (DRs) and IGMP queriers. In Figure 1 1, Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 of Switch A and Switch B are the router ports.
Page 22: How Igmp Snooping Works
NOTE: In IGMP snooping, only dynamic ports age out. Static ports never age out. How IGMP snooping works An IGMP snooping-enabled switch performs different actions when it receives different IGMP messages. The ports in this section are dynamic ports. For information about how to configure and remove static ports, see "Configuring static ports."...
Page 23: Protocols And Standards
When receiving a leave message An IGMPv1 host silently leaves a multicast group, and the switch is not notified of the leave. However, because the host stops sending IGMP reports as soon as it leaves the multicast group, the switch removes the port that connects to the host from the forwarding entry for the multicast group when the aging timer for the port expires.

Page 58: Igmpv3 Enhancements
"Leave group" mechanism In IGMPv1, when a host leaves a multicast group, it does not send any notification to the multicast routers. The multicast routers determine whether a group has members by using the maximum response delay. This adds to the leave latency. In IGMPv2, when a host leaves a multicast group, the following process occurs: The host sends a leave message to all routers on the local subnet.
Page 59 Figure 22 Flow paths of source-and-group-specific multicast traffic In IGMPv1 or IGMPv2, Host B cannot select multicast sources when it joins the multicast group G, and multicast streams from both Source 1 and Source 2 flow to Host B whether or not it needs them. When IGMPv3 runs between the hosts and routers, Host B can explicitly express that it needs to receive the multicast data that Source 1 sends to the multicast group G (denoted as (S1, G)), rather than the multicast data that Source 2 sends to multicast group G (denoted as (S2, G)).

Page 66: Inconsistent Membership Information On The Routers On The Same Subnet
Analysis The correctness of networking and interface connections and whether the protocol layer of the • interface is up directly affect the generation of group membership information. • Multicast routing must be enabled on the router. IGMP must be enabled on the interface that connects to the host.
Page 67: Configuring Pim
Configuring PIM Overview Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) provides IP multicast forwarding by leveraging unicast static routes or unicast routing tables generated by any unicast routing protocol, such as RIP, OSPF, IS-IS, or BGP. PIM is not dependent on any particular unicast routing protocol, and it uses the underlying unicast routing to generate a routing table with routes.
Page 68 Neighbor discovery In a PIM domain, each interface that runs PIM on a router periodically multicasts PIM hello messages to all other PIM routers (identified by the address 224.0.0.13) on the local subnet to discover PIM neighbors, maintain PIM neighboring relationship with other routers, and build and maintain SPTs. SPT building The process of building an SPT is the flood-and-prune process: In a PIM-DM domain, when the multicast source S sends multicast data to the multicast group G,...
Page 69 Graft To reduce the join latency when a new receiver on a previously pruned branch joins a multicast group, PIM-DM uses a graft mechanism to turn the pruned branch into a forwarding branch, as follows: The node that needs to receive the multicast data sends a graft message to its upstream node, telling it to rejoin the SPT.
Page 70: Pim-Sm Overview
PIM-SM overview PIM-DM uses the flood-and-prune cycles to build SPTs for multicast data forwarding. Although an SPT has the shortest paths from the multicast source to the receivers, it is built with a low efficiency and is not suitable for large- and medium-sized networks. PIM-SM uses the pull mode for multicast forwarding, and it is suitable for large- and medium-sized networks with sparsely and widely distributed multicast group members.
Page 71 IMPORTANT: IGMP must be enabled on the device that acts as the receiver-side DR. Otherwise, the receiver hosts attached to the DR cannot join any multicast groups. Figure 26 DR election As shown in Figure 26, the DR election process is as follows: The routers on the shared-media LAN send hello messages to one another.
Page 72 encapsulates the RP-set information in the bootstrap messages (BSMs) and floods the BSMs to the entire PIM-SM domain. Figure 27 Information exchange between C-RPs and BSR Based on the information in the RP-set, all routers in the network can select the proper RP for a specific multicast group based on the following rules: The C-RP with the highest priority wins.
Page 73 After getting the receiver information, the DR sends a join message, which is forwarded hop by hop to the RP that serves the multicast group. The routers along the path from the DR to the RP form an RPT branch. Each router on this branch adds to its forwarding table a (*, G) entry, where the asterisk (*) means any multicast source.
Page 74 Switchover to SPT CAUTION: If the switch is an RP, disabling switchover to SPT might cause multicast traffic forwarding failures on the source-side DR. When disabling switchover to SPT, be sure you fully understand its impact on your network. In a PIM-SM domain, only one RP and one RPT serve a specific multicast group. Before the switchover to SPT occurs, the source-side DR encapsulates all multicast data addressed to the multicast group in register messages and sends them to the RP.
Page 75: Administrative Scoping Overview
Administrative scoping overview Typically, a PIM-SM domain contains only one BSR, which is responsible for advertising RP-set information within the entire PIM-SM domain. The information about all multicast groups is forwarded within the network that the BSR administers. This is called the "non-scoped BSR mechanism." To implement refined management, you can divide a PIM-SM domain into a global-scoped zone and multiple administratively-scoped zones (admin-scoped zones).
Page 76: Protocols And Standards
Figure 30 Relationship in view of geographical locations As shown in Figure 30, for the multicast groups in a specific group address range, the admin-scope zones must be geographically separated and isolated. A router cannot belong to multiple admin-scope zones. In other words, different admin-scope zones contain different routers. However, the global-scoped zone includes all routers in the PIM-SM domain.

Page 79: Configuring Pim-Sm
Enable IP multicast routing before you configure PIM. With PIM-SM enabled on interfaces, routers can establish PIM neighbor relationship and process PIM messages from their PIM neighbors. When you deploy a PIM-SM domain, HP recommends that you enable PIM-SM on all non-border interfaces.

RPs for different multicast group ranges based on the RP-set information. HP recommends configuring C-RPs on backbone routers. To enable the BSR to distribute the RP-set information in the PIM-SM domain, the C-RPs must periodically send advertisement messages to the BSR. The BSR learns the C-RP information, encapsulates the C-RP information and its own IP address in a BSM, and floods the BSM to all PIM routers in the domain.
Page 82 In a PIM-SM domain, the BSR collects C-RP information from the received advertisement messages from the C-RPs, encapsulates the C-RP information in the RP-set information, and distributes the RP-set information to all routers in the PIM-SM domain. All routers use the same hash algorithm to get an RP for a specific multicast group.

In view of information integrity of a register message in the transmission process, you can configure the device to calculate the checksum based on the entire register message. However, to reduce the workload of encapsulating data in register messages and for the sake of interoperability, do not use this checksum calculation method.

Page 110: Configuring Parameters For Mld Queries And Responses
Configuring parameters for MLD queries and responses When a multicast listening host receives an MLD query (general query or multicast-address-specific query), it starts a timer for each IPv6 multicast group that it has joined. This timer is initialized to a random value in the range of 0 to the maximum response delay advertised in the MLD query message.

Page 123: Configuring Ipv6 Multicast Routing And Forwarding
Configuring IPv6 multicast routing and forwarding Overview IPv6 multicast routing and forwarding uses the following tables: IPv6 multicast protocols' routing tables, such as the IPv6 PIM routing table. • • General IPv6 multicast routing table that summarizes the multicast routing information of different IPv6 multicast routing protocols.
Page 124 RPF check implementation in IPv6 multicast Implementing an RPF check on each received IPv6 multicast packet would heavily burden the router. The use of an IPv6 multicast forwarding table is the solution to this issue. When the router creates an IPv6 multicast routing entry and an IPv6 multicast forwarding entry for an IPv6 multicast packet, it sets the RPF interface of the packet as the incoming interface of the forwarding entry.
Page 125: Ipv6 Multicast Forwarding Across Ipv6 Unicast Subnets
searches its IPv6 unicast routing table and finds that the outgoing interface to the source (the RPF interface) is Vlan-interface 20. This means that the (S, G) entry is correct but the packet traveled along a wrong path. The RPF check fails and the router discards the packet. IPv6 multicast forwarding across IPv6 unicast subnets Routers forward the IPv6 multicast data from an IPv6 multicast source hop by hop along the forwarding tree, but some routers might not support IPv6 multicast protocols in a network.

Page 132: Configuring Mld
Configuring MLD Overview Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) establishes and maintains IPv6 multicast group memberships between a Layer 3 multicast device and its directly connected hosts. MLD has two versions: • MLDv1 (defined by RFC 2710), which is derived from IGMPv2. MLDv2 (defined by RFC 3810), which is derived from IGMPv3.
Page 133 Joining an IPv6 multicast group Figure 42 MLD queries and reports IPv6 network Querier Router A Router B Ethernet Host A Host B Host C (G2) (G1) (G1) Query Report Assume that Host B and Host C want to receive the IPv6 multicast data addressed to IPv6 multicast group G1, and Host A wants to receive the IPv6 multicast data addressed to G2, as shown in Figure 42.
Page 134: Mldv2 Enhancements
The host sends an MLD done message to all IPv6 multicast routers on the local subnet. The destination address is FF02::2. After receiving the MLD done message, the querier sends a configurable number of multicast-address-specific queries to the group that the host is leaving. The IPv6 multicast addresses queried include both the destination address field and the group address field of the message.
Page 135: Protocols And Standards
When MLDv2 runs on the hosts and routers, Host B can explicitly express its interest in the IPv6 multicast data that Source 1 sends to G (denoted as (S1, G)), rather than the IPv6 multicast data that Source 2 sends to G (denoted as (S2, G)). Only IPv6 multicast data from Source 1 is delivered to Host B. Enhancement in MLD state A multicast router that is running MLDv2 maintains the multicast address state for each multicast address on each attached subnet.

Page 142: Configuring Ipv6 Pim
Configuring IPv6 PIM PIM overview Protocol Independent Multicast for IPv6 (IPv6 PIM) provides IPv6 multicast forwarding by leveraging IPv6 unicast static routes or IPv6 unicast routing tables generated by any IPv6 unicast routing protocol, such as RIPng, OSPFv3, IPv6 IS-IS, or IPv6 BGP. IPv6 PIM is not dependent on any particular IPv6 unicast routing protocol, and it uses the underlying IPv6 unicast routing to generate a routing table with routes.
Page 143 Neighbor discovery In an IPv6 PIM domain, each interface that runs IPv6 PIM on a router periodically multicasts IPv6 PIM hello messages to all other IPv6 PIM routers on the local subnet to discover IPv6 PIM neighbors, maintain IPv6 PIM neighboring relationship with other routers, and build and maintain SPTs.

Page 144 Graft To reduce the join latency when a new receiver on a previously pruned branch joins an IPv6 multicast group, IPv6 PIM-DM uses a graft mechanism to turn the pruned branch into a forwarding branch, as follows: The node that needs to receive the IPv6 multicast data sends a graft message to its upstream node, telling it to rejoin the SPT.
Page 145: Ipv6 Pim-Sm Overview
IPv6 PIM-SM overview IPv6 PIM-DM uses the flood-and-prune cycles to build SPTs for IPv6 multicast data forwarding. Although an SPT has the shortest paths from the IPv6 multicast source to the receivers, it is built with a low efficiency and is not suitable for large- and medium-sized networks. IPv6 PIM-SM uses the pull mode for IPv6 multicast forwarding, and it is suitable for large-sized and medium-sized networks with sparsely and widely distributed IPv6 multicast group members.
Page 146 IMPORTANT: MLD must be enabled on the device that acts as the receiver-side DR. Otherwise, the receiver hosts attached to the DR cannot join any IPv6 multicast groups. For more information about MLD, see "Configuring MLD." Figure 47 DR election As shown in Figure 47, the DR election process is as follows:...
Page 147 As shown in Figure 48, each C-RP periodically unicasts its advertisement messages (C-RP-Adv messages) to the BSR. An advertisement message contains the address of the advertising C-RP and the IPv6 multicast group range that it serves. The BSR collects these advertisement messages and organizes the C-RP information into an RP-set, which is a database of mappings between IPv6 multicast groups and RPs.
Page 148 RPT building Figure 49 RPT building in an IPv6 PIM-SM domain Host A Source Receiver Host B Server Receiver Join message IPv6 multicast packets Host C As shown in Figure 49, the process of building an RPT is as follows: When a receiver wants to join the IPv6 multicast group G, it uses an MLD message to inform the receiver-side DR.
Page 149 Figure 50 IPv6 multicast source registration As shown in Figure 50, the IPv6 multicast source registers with the RP as follows: The IPv6 multicast source S sends the first multicast packet to the IPv6 multicast group G. When receiving the multicast packet, the source-side DR that directly connects to the IPv6 multicast source encapsulates the packet in an register message and unicasts the message to the RP.
Page 150: Ipv6 Administrative Scoping Overview
To eliminate these weaknesses, IPv6 PIM-SM allows an RP or the receiver-side DR to initiate a switchover to SPT: The RP initiates a switchover to SPT: • When the RP receives the first multicast packet, it sends an (S, G) source-specific join message hop by hop toward the IPv6 multicast source.
Page 151 the IPv6 multicast groups in an IPv6 admin-scoped zone are valid only within its local zone, and theses IPv6 multicast groups are regarded as private group addresses. The IPv6 global-scoped zone can be regarded as a special IPv6 admin-scoped zone, and it maintains a BSR, which serves the IPv6 multicast groups with the scope field value as 14.
Page 152: Protocols And Standards
Figure 52 IPv6 multicast address format An IPv6 admin-scoped zone with a larger scope field value contains an IPv6 admin-scoped zone with a smaller scope field value. The zone with the scope field value of E is the IPv6 global-scoped zone.

Page 154: Configuring State Refresh Parameters
Configuring state refresh parameters The router directly connected with the IPv6 multicast source periodically sends state refresh messages. You can configure the interval for sending such messages on that router. A router might receive duplicate state refresh messages within a short time. To prevent this situation, you can configure the amount of time that the router must wait before receiving the next state refresh message.
Page 155: Configuring Ipv6 Pim-Sm
With IPv6 PIM-SM enabled on interfaces, routers can establish IPv6 PIM neighbor relationship and process IPv6 PIM messages from their IPv6 PIM neighbors. When you deploy an IPv6 PIM-SM domain, HP recommends enabling IPv6 PIM-SM on all non-border interfaces. IMPORTANT: All the interfaces on the same router must operate in the same IPv6 PIM mode.

Solution Use display current-configuration to verify the IPv6 multicast forwarding boundary settings. Use ipv6 multicast boundary to change the multicast forwarding boundary settings to make the IPv6 multicast packet able to cross the boundary. Use display current-configuration to verify the IPv6 multicast data filter. Change the ACL rule defined in the source-policy command so that the source/group address of the IPv6 multicast data can pass ACL filtering.
Page 180 Solution Use display ipv6 routing-table to verify that the IPv6 unicast routes to the C-RPs and the BSR are available on each router and that a route is available between each C-RP and the BSR. Make sure each C-RP has an IPv6 unicast route to the BSR, the BSR has an IPv6 unicast route to each C-RP, and each router on the network has IPv6 unicast routes to the C-RPs.
