Configuring A Multicast Routing Policy - HP A5500 SI Switch Series Configuration Manual

To do...
Configure a multicast
static route
Delete multicast static
routes
CAUTION:
When you configure a multicast static route, do not specify an RPF neighbor by providing the type and
the number of the interface that connects to the RPF neighbor if the interface type of the RPF neighbor is
Ethernet, Loopback, RPR, or VLAN-interface. Instead, specify such an RPF neighbor only by its
rpf-nbr-address.

Configuring a multicast routing policy

You can configure the router to determine the RPF route based on the longest match principle. For more
information about RPF route selection, see
You can configure per-source or per-source-and-group load splitting to optimize the traffic delivery when
multiple data flows are handled.
Configuring a multicast routing policy for the public network
Follow these steps to configure a multicast routing policy for the public network:
To do...
Enter system view
Configure the device to select the
RPF route based on the longest
match
Configure multicast load splitting
Configuring a multicast routing policy in a VPN instance
Follow these steps to configure a multicast routing policy in a VPN instance:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter VPN instance view
Configure the device to select
the RPF route based on the
longest match
Use the command...
ip rpf-route-static [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]
source-address { mask | mask-length } [ protocol [
process-id ] ] [ route-policy policy-name ] { rpf-nbr-
address | interface-type interface-number } [
preference preference ] [ order order-number ]
delete ip rpf-route-static [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-
name ]
