Multicast routing problem

Hi Folks,

I'm having some issues with multicast routing - though it certainly wouldn't be my strongest area of networking expertise so it may be something simple.  I have two sources for group 239.192.255.3 on two VLANs (43, 10.4.43.28 and 943, 192.168.43.28) and a destination upstream (out interface tengigabit 1/2 - which is also a source for the same group at the same time 10.1.32.32).

The following shows the multicast route table for this group.

6509#sho ip mroute 239.192.255.3

IP Multicast Routing Table

Flags: D - Dense, S - Sparse, B - Bidir Group, s - SSM Group, C - Connected,

       L - Local, P - Pruned, R - RP-bit set, F - Register flag,

       T - SPT-bit set, J - Join SPT, M - MSDP created entry,

       X - Proxy Join Timer Running, A - Candidate for MSDP Advertisement,

       U - URD, I - Received Source Specific Host Report, Z - Multicast Tunnel

       Y - Joined MDT-data group, y - Sending to MDT-data group

Outgoing interface flags: H - Hardware switched, A - Assert winner

Timers: Uptime/Expires

Interface state: Interface, Next-Hop or VCD, State/Mode

(*, 239.192.255.3), 6w6d/stopped, RP 10.3.0.1, flags: SJCF

  Incoming interface: TenGigabitEthernet1/1, RPF nbr 10.0.234.3, Partial-SC

  Outgoing interface list:

    Vlan43, Forward/Sparse-Dense, 6w4d/00:02:52, H

  Outgoing interface list:

    TenGigabitEthernet1/2, Forward/Sparse-Dense, 3d23h/00:02:33, H

    Vlan43, Forward/Sparse-Dense, 6w4d/00:02:52, H

I can't figure out why (10.4.43.28, 239.192.255.3) is not routed out TenGigabitEthernet1/2 as well as VLAN 943 a imilar to the way that (192.168.43.28, 239.192.255.3) is.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Why is RPF nbr 0.0.0.0?  You need perhaps to fix any unicast-multicast inconsistencies.

I think that this is because the source is on the locally attached subnet.

Hi Folks,

I got to the bottom of this eventually, I needed to run Bidirectional PIM and then all sources could "talk" to all receivers.

Regards.
