The arguments source-address { mask | mask-length }, protocol and policy-name are critical elements in
multicast static route configuration. The variation of any of these arguments results in a different
configuration.
When you configure a multicast static route, the system first checks whether any of these argument exists.
If the system finds a match, you must modify the corresponding fields without changing the configuration
sequence. Otherwise, the system adds a multicast static route.
When you configure a multicast static route, specify an RPF neighbor only by providing its IP address
(rpf-nbr-address) rather than providing the type and number (interface-type interface-number) of the
interface that connects the RPF if the interface of the RPF neighbor is a Layer 3 Ethernet port, Layer 3
aggregate interface, Loopback interface, or VLAN interface.
Because outgoing interface iteration might fail or the specified interface might be in the down state, the
multicast static route configured with this command might fail to take effect. Therefore, use the display
multicast routing-table static command after you configure a multicast static route to check whether the
route has been successfully configured or whether the route has taken effect.
Related commands: delete ip rpf-route-static and display multicast routing-table static.
Examples
# Configure a multicast static route to the multicast source 10.1.1.1/24. Specify a router with the IP
address of 192.168.1.23 as its RPF neighbor.

mtracert

Syntax
mtracert source-address [ [ last-hop-router-address ] group-address ]
View
Any view
Default level
1: Monitor level
Parameters
source-address: Specifies a multicast source address.
group-address: Specifies a multicast group address, in the range of 224.0.1.0 to 239.255.255.255.
last-hop-router-address: Specifies a last-hop router address, which is the IP address of the local router by
default.
Description
Use mtracert to trace the path down which the multicast traffic flows to the last-hop router.
If the command to trace the path for a specific (S, G) multicast stream includes the last-hop-router-address
argument, the interface that corresponds to the last-hop router address must be the outgoing interface for
the (S, G) entry. Otherwise, the multicast traceroute might fail.
Examples
# Trace the path down which the (6.6.6.6, 225.2.1.1) multicast traffic flows to the last-hop router with an
IP address of 5.5.5.8.
