Hello
I am trying to understand how Ping response to an ip igmp
joing-group
multicast group works. I have got following setup
R1
- FR hub -- Ip pim send rp announce loop0 --- ip pim
send-rp-discove
loop0
R2 R3 -- E0 -- ip pim spares-mode
Ip add 200.20.10.1
Ip igmp join group
227.1.1.1
R1 is FR hub and R2 and R3 are spoke. R1 is RP and also
mapping agent.
My question is in order for R1 and R2 to ping this M G
227.1.1.1 , do
they need to have L3 reach ability to the int e0 unicast ip
address
200.20.10.1
In my lab it works with or with out L3 reach
ability to add 200.20.10.1
If R2 do not know how to reach 200.20.10.1
then how can it ping this MG
227.1.1.1
Any idea.
Your help will
be highly appreciated
Thanks
