  We'll help you doglover, don't worry...

  Go ahead and give me a ip igmp join-group 224.2.2.2 on R3's F0/0 and
  a
  Ip pim sparse-dense.

  Now post back a "show ip mroute" on R2 and R3. I want to see what's
  in the
  Multicast O.I.L.

  Thanks,

  Joe

  (BTW: if you want to a webex to observe this work in my lab, we can,
  I
  played this command for hours and hours and found several ways to get
  its
  functionality without the helper-map)

  Hello!
  I am trying to simulate the forward of broadcast traffic into
  multicast
  packets using the command "ip multicast helper-map", as the LAB8 of
  IE.
  The network is the following:

  R1 (e0/0) --- (f0/0) R2 (s0/1/0.1) <--FR--> (s0/1/0.1) R3 (fa0/0) ---
  (fa0/0) R4

  CONFIGS:
  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
  -------
  ***R1 - Sender Broadcast traffic via SAA:

  !
  rtr 1
  rtr schedule 1 life forever start-time now
  !
  type udpEcho dest-ipaddr 255.255.255.255 dest-port 3434 control
  disable
  timeout 1
  frequency 1
  !

  ***R2 - Receive broadcast and send into multicast packets to
  224.2.2.2
  group:

  !
  interface FastEthernet0/0
  ip address 150.2.4.1 255.255.255.0
  ip multicast helper-map broadcast 224.2.2.2 111
  !
  interface Serial0/1/0.1 point-to-point
  ip address 4.4.24.4 255.255.255.0
  ip pim dr-priority 0
  ip pim sparse-mode
  !
  access-list 111 permit udp any any eq 3434
  !
  ip forward-protocol udp 3434
  !

  ***R3 - Receive multicast traffic and send to broadcast address
  (fa0/0)

  !
  interface Serial0/1/0.1 point-to-point
  ip address 4.4.24.2 255.255.255.0
  ip pim sparse-mode
  ip multicast helper-map 224.2.2.2 4.4.26.255 111
  !
  access-list 111 permit udp any any eq 3434
  !
  ip forward-protocol udp 3434
  !
  interface FastEthernet0/0
  ip address 4.4.26.2 255.255.255.0
  ip directed-broadcast
  ip pim sparse-mode
  !

  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

  ------

  Verification on routers:

  R1:

  R1#sh rtr totals-statistics
  Entry number: 1
  Start Time Index: *04:25:25.046 UTC Mon Mar 1 1993
  Age of statistics entry (seconds): 3034
  Number of initiations: 3035

  R2:

  I can see the broadcast traffic on ethernet interface:

  R2#debug ip packet detail 111
  IP packet debugging is on (detailed) for access list 111
  R2#
  *Nov 18 19:53:21.187: IP: s=150.2.4.254 (FastEthernet0/0),
  d=255.255.255.255, len 44, rcvd 2
  *Nov 18 19:53:21.187: UDP src=56958, dst=3434
  *Nov 18 19:53:22.187: IP: s=150.2.4.254 (FastEthernet0/0),
  d=255.255.255.255, len 44, rcvd 2
  *Nov 18 19:53:22.187: UDP src=49314, dst=3434
  *Nov 18 19:53:23.187: IP: s=150.2.4.254 (FastEthernet0/0),
  d=255.255.255.255, len 44, rcvd 2
  *Nov 18 19:53:23.187: UDP src=50778, dst=3434
  *Nov 18 19:53:24.187: IP: s=150.2.4.254 (FastEthernet0/0),
  d=255.255.255.255, len 44, rcvd 2
  *Nov 18 19:53:24.187: UDP src=57531, dst=3434

  But When I try to see the multicast packets:

  R2#debug ip mp
  R2#debug ip mpacket
  IP multicast packets debugging is on
  R2#
  R2#
  R2#

  Nothing happens at all...

  R3:

  R3#debug ip packet detail 111
  IP packet debugging is on (detailed) for access list 111
  R3#

  Nothing happens too...

  Anybody has any idea about what is wrong? Brian, could you help me?
  I read everything that I found about this, but i really don't know
  what is
  wrong...:

  - Developing IP Multicast Networks - Chapter 16 -
  "Broadcast-Multicast
  Traffic Conversion"
  - IEWB - LAB 8 - Version 4
  - "ip multicast helper-map" command:
