Joe,
 
OSPF is going to -use- multicast to speak to form its neighbor relationships on NBMA and broadcast links. It's this communication that k c is referring to, as opposed to type-6 LSAs regarding the multicast routing table for the OSPF topology database.

Some body please correct me if I'm wrong. But, I don't think this is a concern for the CCIE R&S lab, because Cisco does not support LSA 6. LSA 6 is used for multicast.

Therefore, I don't believe Cisco's implementation of OSPF support multicast.

Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks,

Hi Group,

In Cat3550, if I use "storm-control multicast level 20" to control multicast storm. When the multicast traffic exceed the threshold, they are dropped so as the ospf packets? Any method to control multicast traffic but not affecting ospf process?

Thanks.
