I was trying out some thing which is not working. Here it is -
RF
|
RA====FR Network =====RB
|
RC======RD=====RE
The above setup consists of FR network RC is hub. RA & RB are spoke.
RC, RD and RE are connected on Ethernet.
Requirement is to make RD as RP (Rendezvous Point). RE is joining the group
224.3.3.3 which should be accessible from all the routers.
I tried this but it would not work. I will be able to reach 224.3.3.3 from
RC and RD, but not from RA and RB.
If I check the mroute table on RC for RA and RB, I can see (*,G) entry with
proper RP entry. (S,G) entry will have proper incoming interface. But the
RPF nbr entry in (S,G) entry will point to RA/RB serial interface instead of
pointing to RD interface. Outgoing list will be empty.
I am able to reach 224.3.3.3 from RF without any problem.
If I make RC as RP everything works fine.
Is it possible to make RD as RP, if yes then what are the basic
requirements? If not then why ???
Thanks in advance.
