Page 74 highlights

Step 1. Enter system view. 2. Enable IP multicast routing. Command system-view multicast routing-enable Remarks N/A Disabled by default Configuring multicast routing and forwarding Before you configure multicast routing and forwarding, complete the following tasks: • Configure a unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain are interoperable at the network layer. • Enable PIM (PIM-DM or PIM-SM). • Determine the maximum number of downstream nodes for a single multicast forwarding table entry. • Determine the maximum number of entries in the multicast forwarding table. Configuring static multicast routes By configuring a static multicast route for a given multicast source, you can specify an RPF interface or an RPF neighbor for multicast traffic from that source. If you want to remove a specific static multicast route, use the undo ip rpf-route-static command, if you want to remove all static multicast routes, use the delete ip rpf-route-static command. When you configure a static multicast route, you cannot specify an RPF neighbor by providing the type and number (interface-type interface-number) of the interface if the interface of the RPF neighbor is a Loopback interface or VLAN interface. Instead, you can specify such an RPF neighbor only by its address (rpf-nbr-address). To configure a static multicast route: Step 1. Enter system view. 2. Configure a static multicast route. 3. Delete static multicast routes. Command Remarks system-view N/A ip rpf-route-static source-address { mask | mask-length } [ protocol [ process-id ] ] [ route-policy policy-name ] { rpf-nbr-address | interface-type interface-number } [ preference preference ] [ order order-number ] No static multicast route is configured by default. delete ip rpf-route-static Optional. Configuring a multicast routing policy You can configure the router to determine the RPF route based on the longest match principle. For more information about RPF route selection, see "RPF check process." By configuring per-source or per-source-and-group load splitting, you can optimize the traffic delivery when multiple data flows are handled. Step 1. Enter system view.

Configuring multicast routing and forwarding
Before you configure multicast routing and forwarding, complete the following tasks:
Configure a unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain are interoperable at the
network layer.
Enable PIM (PIM-DM or PIM-SM).
Determine the maximum number of downstream nodes for a single multicast forwarding table entry.
Determine the maximum number of entries in the multicast forwarding table.
Configuring static multicast routes
By configuring a static multicast route for a given multicast source, you can specify an RPF interface or an
RPF neighbor for multicast traffic from that source. If you want to remove a specific static multicast route,
use the
undo ip rpf-route-static
command, if you want to remove all static multicast routes, use the
delete
ip rpf-route-static
command.
When you configure a static multicast route, you cannot specify an RPF neighbor by providing the type
and number (
interface-type interface-number
) of the interface if the interface of the RPF neighbor is a
Loopback interface or VLAN interface. Instead, you can specify such an RPF neighbor only by its address
(
rpf-nbr-address
).

Configuring a multicast routing policy
You can configure the router to determine the RPF route based on the longest match principle. For more
information about RPF route selection, see "
RPF check process
."
By configuring per-source or per-source-and-group load splitting, you can optimize the traffic delivery
when multiple data flows are handled.
