FWSM and Multicast

[anazarenko]

I have the following config

multicast-routing

pim rp-address 10.200.59.10

I don't have any PIM neighbors, I just need to pass multicast stream from Vlan107 to Vlan126.

interface Vlan107

nameif eDIN

security-level 40

ip address 10.90.23.254 255.255.254.0 standby 10.90.23.253

interface Vlan126

nameif OPE_TCE

security-level 20

ip address 10.11.40.1 255.255.0.0 standby 10.11.40.2

igmp static-group 226.1.1.1

access-group eDIN_access_in in interface eDIN

....

access-list eDIN_access_in extended permit ip any host 226.1.1.1

show access-list

access-list eDIN_access_in line 18 extended permit ip any host 226.1.1.1 (hitcnt=504349) 0x3cfe4253

I don't see (S,G) entry for my multicast stream. ANy help would be appreciated.

Hello,

This means that the registration process has not finished yet,

Who is this guy 10.200.59.10 ( Core router, etc),

Also you are running PIM sparse-mode on the FWSM and you do not see any neigbhorship, ofcourse you will not receive any traffic, you must build a PIM relationship between you and the device that connects to the RP address

Dear Sir,

10.200.59.10 is FWSM itself.

I just need to pass the traffic from one VLAN to another one. (light version of PIM, without neighbors)

My subscriber is sitting in OPE_TCE VLAN.

[Julio Carvajal]

Okey, got it,

So basically multicast traffic will only flow across the FWSM

The source of the traffic is on the eDIN interface,

What happens if you apply captures and generate some traffic? Do u see the traffic reaching both interfaces?

Can you use the eDIN interface as the RP address ( As I do not see the 10.200.59.10 listed on the config, just want to be sure)

Ok, today i managed to change RP to Vlan eDIN.
