Unicast to multicast conversion (Multicast Service Reflection) on access switches

[Madura Malwatte]

I have a requirement to do convert UDP or HLS unicast streams to UDP multicast. I understand that this can be done with the Multicast Service Reflection feature. However looking at the feature navigator it seems this feature is only supported on ISR or ASR router platforms? Is this correct?

Can someone please confirm whether this feature or this requirement can be met on any of the Campus access switches such as 2960X, 3750, etc?

As far as, I know, there are two methods to convert unicast to multicast,

- Using NAT

- Multicast Service Reflection (In Cisco IOS XE, converting unicast to multicast translation not supported)

and both can be done using a router. I do not know your question exact answer, but if you have layer 3 switch and if you can make static NAT, maybe you can achieve what you want.
