    RSTP and MVR (Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol + MVR) Ring work as the Aggregation Layer Ethernet Switch ZyNOS 3.7 Support Notes Version 3.70 December 2006...

  • Page 2: Overview Of Mvr

    (R)STP -compliant switches in your network in order to ensure that only one path exists between any two stations on the network. Note: "STP" refers to both STP and RSTP on ZyXEL Management Switch. Overview of MVR Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR) is designed for applications (such as Media-on-Demand (MoD)) that use multicast traffic across an Ethernet ring-based service provider network.
  • Page 3 In the following section, we will provide an example to illustrate how to create a multicast network with IGMP Router (IGMP L3 Switch), IGMP Snooping L2 Switch on a ring using RSTP, and MVR L2 Switch with IGMP Snooping Enabled. In this scenario, the Video Servers are located in VLAN200. Thus, the Multicast VLAN is going to be VLAN200.
  • Page 4 7. First of all, the IP domain of the video servers is 192.168.10.1/24. The video servers will be put under VLAN200, so we will need to create VLAN200 as well as the IP domain on the Switch first. To do so, click All contents copyright (c) 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
  • Page 5 VID (200 in our case). Since the Video Servers are connected to port 10 through another L2 VLAN unaware Switch, we need to take away the “Tx Tagging” and let the Switch to take away the VLAN tag during Egress. Port 12 should be joined to the VLAN200 since it is used to connect to the first MVR L2 Switch.
  • Page 6 This Switch should apply the VID200 tag to all those packets in order for them to go into VLAN 200. Click “Apply” to apply your changes. All contents copyright (c) 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. RSTP and MVR Support Note II...
  • Page 7 13. Since we will give the same IP domain as the video server, use 192.168.10.1 /24 again, and again, make it belong to VLAN 200. Click “Add” to add this VLAN. All contents copyright (c) 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. RSTP and MVR Support Note II...
  • Page 8 14. Now, the last step is to activate IGMP Route V2 in our newly created IP Domain. To do so we click “IP Application” 15. First, tick the check box and assign “IGMP v2” to the IP domain 192.168.10.1/24. All contents copyright (c) 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation. RSTP and MVR Support Note II “IGMP”.

  • Page 10 6. After successful login you will see a screen similar to the one on the screenshot below. 7. First, we are going to create the multicast VLAN 200 on this switch. Also, RSTP is needed in our case to build the Aggregation layer ring (3x IGMP L2 Switches) for case of physical wire being disconnected.
  • Page 11 9. To configure RSTP, check “Active” to enable this feature first. Since this switch is going to be the root switch in our ring, we will give it the highest spanning tree priority 0 (The lower the number, the higher the priority).
  • Page 12 10. Now we are going to create the multicast VLAN 200 on the ports within the ring (port 11 and port 12) and also the uplink port (port 9). Port 9 is connected to the L3 IGMP Switch. All contents copyright (c) 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
