Multicast routing on the SSR is supported through the Distance Vector Multicast Routing
Protocol (DVMRP) and Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP). DVMRP is used to
determine forwarding of multicast traffic between SSRs. IGMP is used to determine host
membership on directly attached subnets. This chapter
•
provides an overview of the SSR's implementation of DVMRP, which is the routing
protocol IP uses to perform multicast routing on the SSR.
•
discusses configuring DVMRP routing on the SSR.
•
provides an overview of the SSR's implementation of IGMP.
•
discusses configuring IGMP on the SSR.
In addition to configuring the SSR for multicast routing, you can configure the SSR for
unicast routing and IPX. For details on unicast routing, see
Unicast Routing on the SSR" on page
the SSR for IPX Routes" on page
Note:
Before you begin configuring your SSR for multicast routing, you should create
the IP interfaces you want to use for multicast routing. For details, see
IP Interfaces" on page
What Is DVMRP?
DVMRP is an IP multicast routing protocol. On the SSR, DVMRP routing is implemented
as specified in the draft-ietf-idmr-dvmrp-v3-06.txt file, which is an Internet Engineering
