Hi,
I came to managing a network a few months ago, I am NOT a network SME. I am trying to figure out multicast issues. Developer has this setup:
SRV1 (10.16.16.228, using UDP 224.4.205.58-61) streaming video to SRV2 (10.16.16.228). SRV2 is then streaming processed video to UDP 239.0.0.1. User is trying to see the video from a workstation on 10.16.16.18.
So I did some digging and 'show run pim' shows switches are configured for SSM. A 'show ip igmp interface VLANxxx' shows we are using IGMP v2. So from what I have read SSM does not use an RP and also SSM uses an address block of 232.0.0.0/8, and SSM needs IGMPv3. So I am totally confused with our configuration (being as I am told this worked before but I don't know WHEN it worked before). Seems to me the application needs to use different UDP or the network config needs to change to use an RP and addresses in the 239.0.0.x space. Would I be correct?
TIA.
