cisco switch 6500 configuration to support the DCM

[Mohamed Sayed]

hi all

If I need to connect DCM to 6500 I think in two model of configuration:

• The first model:

!

ip multicast-routing

!

vlan 16

name DCM

exit

!

interface Vlan16

description *** DCM ***

ip address 10.16.0.1 255.255.0.0

!

Inter gi 1/1/1

description "TO DCM”

ip address 10.16.0.2 255.255.0.0

ip igmp version 3

ip igmp join-group 239.10.10.10

ip pim sparse-mode

!

Inter gi 2/1/1

description "TO DCM”

ip address 10.16.0.4 255.255.0.0

ip igmp version 3

ip igmp join-group 239.10.10.10

ip pim sparse-mode

!

****************************************************************************************************************************************************

• The second model

!

ip multicast-routing

!

vlan 16

name DCM

exit

!

interface Vlan16

description *** DCM ***

ip address 10.16.0.1 255.255.0.0

ip igmp version 3

ip igmp join-group 239.10.10.10

ip pim sparse-mode

!

Inter gi 1/1/1

description "TO DCM”

switchport

switchport mode access

switchport access vlan 16

!

Inter gi 2/1/1

description "TO DCM”

switchport

switchport mode access

switchport access vlan 16

!

****************************************************************************************************************

which one is the correct and what is the required other than these configuration ?

please advice 

thanks in advance

Hi 

Are you taking about cisco digital content manager .  

Configuring IP address by your first model on your catalyst switch 6500 is not possible ,  On your second model check on your DCM whether you are able to assign same subnet IP address on your Gi interface . 

Even I dont see you can assign same IP subnet to multiple GI interface , you need to go with multiple IP subnets for connectivity between DCM and your catalyst switch .

Q. Can I configure two interfaces in the same subnet (t0 = 142.10.46.250/24 and t1 142.10.46.251/24)?

A. No. For the routing to work, each interface should be on a different subnet. However, if you are only bridging, and not doing IP routing, then you can configure the two interfaces on the same subnet.
