11.4.7 PIM SSM

While PIM-SM employs a specially-configured RP router that serves as a meeting junction for
multicast senders and listeners, Protocol-Independent Multicast Source Specific Multicast
(PIM-SSM) does not use an RP. It supports only source-route deliver trees. It is used between
routers so that they can track which multicast packets to forward to each other and to their
directly-connected LANs. The SSM service model can be implemented with a strict subset of
the PIM-SM protocol mechanisms. Both regular IP Multicast and SSM semantics can coexist on
a single router and both can be implemented using the PIM-SM protocol. A range of multicast
addresses, currently 232.0.0.0/8 in IPv4, is reserved for SSM.

Description
Required. Configure IP addresses and subnet masks of routing
interfaces on Routing→ Interface→Interface Config page.
Required. Configure the routing entries via static route or dynamic
routing protocol like OSPF, and make sure all the switches can
communicate with each other and update the routing information
through a unicast routing protocol dynamically.
Required. Enable multicast routing on Multicast Routing→Global
Config page. Enable PIM SM on routing interfaces on Multicast
Routing→PIM SM→PIM SM Interface page.
Required. Configure static RP or configure a specified routing
interface as candidate RP on Multicast Routing→PIM SM→RP page.
Configure a specified routing interface as candidate BSR on
Multicast Routing→PIM SM→BSR page.
Required. Enable IGMP on the routing interfaces which connect to
the receivers on Multicast Routing→IGMP→Interface Config page.
