Multicasting on N5k/N2k

[mangesh.kamble]

Dear All.

I have 2 N5k running in vPC and there are 2 member N2k participating in vPC.

Now I have a single server vlan in which there are around 30-40 servers running multicast applications.

Now I need to enable multicast for these servers or rather for entire vlan, but I am not sure with what commands to enter and also whether it supports multicast.

I have upgraded my Nexus with latest IOS, so request for your valuable inputs in achieving the same.

Awaiting response.

Thanks and Regards,

Mangesh.

IGMP snooping is enabled by default unless you changed the configurion. If you do not have PIM router in the VLAN, you can configure the Nexus 5000s to be IGMP querier and then you should be all set
