Dear members;
While I was studying about multicast helper-map,
I found a lot of differences between the Cisco Univercd and the Cisco Press book.
I captured both the configurations as well as mine.
So, if anyone knows well about multicast, please help me out.
Here is the topology.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Broadcast SRC(10.1.1.10)+----+E0:10.1.1.1[RTR-A]S0+----MULTICAST CLOUD....
...MULTICAST CLOUD----+S0[RTR-B]E0:10.2.2.1+---Non-MC Receiver(10.2.2.10)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And the Configurations
The differences are marked with (*).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### 12.2 Multicast Configuration Guide ###
- http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122cgcr/fipr_c/ipcpt3/1cfmulti.htm#wp1003511
- Eth1 is in the example of CCO is changed to S0 in the example here.
[RTR-A]
int e0
ip directed broadcast
ip multicast helper-map broadcast 224.5.5.5 100
ip pim dense-mode
!
access-list 100 permit udp any any 4000
!
ip forward-protocol udp 4000
[RTR-B]
int s0
ip directed-broadcast
ip multicast helper-map 224.5.5.5 10.2.2.255 100
ip pim dense-mode
!
access-list 100 permit udp any any 4000
!
ip forward-protocol udp 4000
### Developing IP Multicast Networks(by Beau Williamson) ###
[RTR-A]
int e0
ip directed-broadcast
ip multicast-helper broadcast 224.5.5.5 100
!
access-list 100 permit any any udp 4000
!
ip forward-protocol udp 2000
[RTR-B]
int s0
ip multicast helper-map 224.5.5.5 10.2.2.255 100
ip igmp join-group 224.5.5.5(automatically configured by IOS)
!
int e0
ip directed-broadcast
!
access-list 100 permit udp any any eq 4000
### My Solution ###
[RTR-A]
int e0
--> I don't think this interface is a multicast interface.
ip directed-broadcast
--> Since the interface should process the broadcast
ip multicast helper-map broadcast 224.5.5.5 100
--> Since the router should translate broadcast into multicast
!
access-list 100 permit udp any any 4000
!
ip forward-protocol udp 4000
[RTR-B]
int s0
ip multicast helper-map 224.5.5.5 10.2.2.255 100
--> Since the router should translate the multicast into broadcast
ip igmp join-group 224.5.5.5(automatically configured by IOS)
ip pim dense-mode
--> Since this interface is included in the multicast cloud
int e0
--> I don't think this interface is a multicast interface.
ip directed-broadcast
--> Since this interface should process broadcast
!
access-list 100 permit udp any any 4000
!
ip forward-protocol udp 4000
