Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is a protocol in the TCP/IP
suite responsible for management of IP multicast members. This
document describes:
IGMP overview
Configuring basic functions of IGMP
Configuring IGMP performance parameters
Configuring IGMP SSM Mapping
Configuring IGMP Proxying
PIM leverages the unicast routing table created by any unicast routing
protocol to provide routing information for IP multicast. This document
describes:
Configuring PIM-DM
Configuring PIM-SM
Configuring PIM-SSM
Configuring PIM Common Features
Multicast source discovery protocol (MSDP) describes interconnection
mechanism of multiple PIM-SM domains. It is used is to discover
multicast source information in other PIM-SM domains. This document
describes:
MSDP configuration
Configuring an MSDP Peer Connection
Configuring SA Messages Related Parameters
As a multicast extension of MP-BGP, MBGP enables BGP to provide
routing information for multicast applications. This document describes:
Configuring MBGP Basic Functions
Configuring MBGP Route Attributes
Configuring a Large Scale MBGP Network
Multicast VPN is a technique that implements multicast delivery in MPLS
L3VPN networks. This document describes:
Multicast VPN overview
How MD-VPN works
Configuring MD VPN
Running at the data link layer, IGMP Snooping is a multicast control
mechanism on the Layer 2 Ethernet switch and it is used for multicast
group management and control. This document describes:
Configuring Basic Functions of IGMP Snooping
Configuring IGMP Snooping Port Functions
Configuring IGMP Snooping Querier
Configuring IGMP Snooping Proxying
Configuring IGMP Snooping Policy
The multicast VLAN feature configured on the Layer 2 device can saves
the network bandwidth and lessens the burden of the Layer 3 device.
This document describes:
Configuring Sub-VLAN-Based Multicast VLAN
Configuring Port-Based Multicast VLAN
IPv6 multicast routing and forwarding refer to some policies that filter
RPF routing information for IPv6 multicast support. This document
describes:
