Does the FWSM version 2.3 support multicast? Specifically IGMP?

[bphan · Accepted solution]

Hello dkea:

All FWSM version up until the most current one, 2.3.2 does not support multicast routing on routed mode, whether it is single or multiple context mode. However, multicast routing is supported on transparent (layer 2) firewall mode, which subjects to the limitation of 2 interfaces.

Support for routed mode will be available on the next release - 3.1.

Hope that helps.

Sincerely,

Binh

Thanks Binh, that's what TAC told me too. Do you have any idea when 3.1 will be available?

Just heard back from TAC that 3.1 is coming out in Q3 or Q4. Thanks.
