Configuring The Ssm Group Range - HP A6600 Configuration Manual

Enabling PIM-SM in a VPN instance
All the interfaces in the same VPN instance on the same device must work in the same PIM mode.
To do...
1. Enter system view.
2. Create a VPN instance and
enter VPN instance view.
3. Configure a
route-distinguisher
4. (RD) for the VPN instance.
5. Enable IP multicast routing.
6. Enter interface view.
7. Bind the interface with a VPN
instance.
8. Enable PIM-SM.
For more information about the ip vpn-instance, route-distinguisher, and ip binding vpn-instance
commands, see MPLS Command Reference.
For more information about the multicast routing-enable command, see IP Multicast Command Reference.

Configuring the SSM group range

As for whether the information from a multicast source is delivered to the receivers based on the PIM-SSM
model or the PIM-SM model, this depends on whether the group address in the (S, G) channel subscribed
by the receivers falls in the SSM group range. All PIM-SM-enabled interfaces assume that multicast groups
within this address range are using the PIM-SSM model.
Perform the following configuration on all routers in the PIM-SSM domain.
To do...
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter public network PIM view
or VPN instance PIM view.
3. Configure the SSM group
range.
Make sure that the same SSM group range is configured on all routers in the entire domain. Otherwise,
multicast information cannot be delivered through the SSM model.
When a member of a multicast group in the SSM group range sends an IGMPv1 or IGMPv2 report
message, the router does not trigger a (*, G) join.
Use the command...
system-view
ip vpn-instance vpn-instance-name
route-distinguisher
route-distinguisher
multicast routing-enable
interface interface-type
interface-number
ip binding vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name
pim sm
Use the command...
system-view
pim [ vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name ]
ssm-policy acl-number
