Per-Vlan Pim-Sm Configuration - HP ProCurve 6200yl Multicast And Routing Manual

N o t e
• Enable RIP or OSPF (Use router < rip | ospf >.)
• If desired, configure static routes to the destination subnets.
(Use ip route < dest-ip-address >/< mask-bits > < next-hop-ip-addr >.)

Per-VLAN PIM-SM Configuration

These steps configure PIM-SM in the VLAN interface context for each VLAN
configured on the router (ProCurve(vlan-< vid >)#_).
1. Enable IGMP. (Use ip igmp.) Repeat this action on every router (and
switch) having membership in the VLAN.
2. Enable the same routing method you enabled in step 4 under "Per-Router
Global Configuration Context" on page 4-20. at both the global and VLAN
levels on the routers where there are connected multicast receivers that
may issue joins or send multicast traffic.
3. Enable PIM-SM on the VLAN interfaces where you want to allow routed
multicast traffic. (Default: disabled)
a. If these VLANs do not already have static IP addresses, then statically
configure one or more IP addresses on each VLAN you want to
support PIM-SM operation. (PIM-SM cannot be enabled on a VLAN
that does not have a statically configured IP address. That is, PIM-SM
cannot use an IP address acquired by DHCP/Bootp.)
b. Use ip pim-sparse to enter the VLAN's pim-sparse context and do one
of the following:
– Enable PIM-SM on the VLAN and allow the default option (any)
to dynamically determine the source IP address for the PIM-SM
packets sent from this VLAN interface.
– Enable PIM-SM on the VLAN and specify an IP address for the
PIM-SM packets sent from this VLAN interface. (The specified IP
address must already be statically configured on the VLAN.)
(This step requires enabling router pim on the global configuration
context. Refer to step 3 on page 4-20.)
c. In the VLAN's pim-sparse context, you also have the option to change
the current DR priority (default = 1) to the value wanted for the
current router in the current VLAN. (Use dr-priority < 0 - 4294967295 >.)
When you initially enable PIM-SM, ProCurve recommends that you leave the
PIM-SM traffic control settings (listed in the next step) at their default settings.
You can then assess performance and make configuration changes where a
need appears.
