Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3750G / Switches Flooding Multicast Streams But IGMP Enabled?
Nov 3, 2011
I have a 2x Cisco 3750G switches (Stacked) that are part of an IP Video Surveillance System .All network is set to 1 VLAN (VLAN 1 default).The Cisco SWs ( Core ) are configured with IGMP Querier + Snooping .Connected to the Cisco SWs are 4 Fiber Rings(Loops) for redundancy . RSTP and IGMP Snooping are enabled on all the network SWs .Network Architecture Figure :
When all Fiber Rings (Loops ) are connected , the Cisco and Ring SWs spanning-tree tables show the blocked and forwarding ports properly .I am able to connect all my IP Cams + Encoders to the Ring SWs and connect my Servers + WorkStations to the Cisco SWs to record and view the multicast ip streams .All streams from Rings 1 ,3 and 4 are getting normally to the Servers + WorkStations through multicast ( IGMP Snooping are filled correctly on the Cisco and non-Cisco SWs ) . All multicast streams are joined normally except for Ring 2 .The Multicast streams passing through Ring 2 will operate normally for around 2 hours then after that the Fiber SWs begin to flood their multicast traffic causing the cams on the same switch to drop off the network .
I checked the Configuration of all the SWs on Ring 2 but all are are the same .
What is weird is that I have to set all the streams to unicast to stop the flooding just on Ring 2 (All other rings are not affected ) then after some time if I enabled a video multicast stream on one of the SWs of the Ring it will be streamed properly to the Servers + WorkStations ( All IGMP tables along the way will be filled properly ) then again after 2 hours or so , the flooding will start again suddenly and all IGMP table entries for the SW on Ring2 will be empty . No problem occurs on the other Rings which have more multicast streams .

A brief background on the setup: I recently switched out my switch. It was a Cisco 3750 10/100 switch and I wanted to upgrade to Gig. The cost of a Gig+POE 3750 is too much to bite so I opted for the SG300. My router is a Cisco 891. Here is the setup:
Cisco 891:
two SVI's: vlan1 and vlan 100
Vlan1 = 10.0.1.1/24
[Code].....
With the 891+3750, I was able to add "ip pim sparse-dense-mode" on all the SVI's and hosts could join any multicast group, irregardless of which vlan the host was a member of.
Now I've changed switches, and I dont get the same love. I have the PIM statement on both SVI's on the 891, but Im unsure of what I need to configure on the SG300. I have enabled "Bridge multicast filtering" + "IGMP snooping". What can I do to get similar functionality using the SG300 + 891? I assume this is my lack of understanding IGMP in general, but was able to get away with it using the PIM statements on the 891+3750 stack.

We have a 3750 acting as the core. By default IGMP snooping is enabled on cisco 3750 from the documents.but, when we see the ip mroute table on the switch, it doesnt show any output.

I manage a network with a ghost server, a 3750G, several outside access, and some vlans.This is a very simplify view of this network:
The ghost server is on all vlans connected to a trunk port on the 3750G which is used as a central switch and for basic routing.All equipements connected to vlans 1, 2 or 3 are on 2950 switchs themselves connected to the 3750G on dedicated access ports, each in there respective vlans.
All equipements connected to vlans 1, 2 or 3 have as gateway a vlan interface on the 3750. (10.0.x.3)All the vlan interfaces have route-maps applied on them to redirect traffic to their dedicated outside access.The route-maps match only traffic destinated to the outside.
Everthing is working well but the multicast.When I create a ghost session on the server, I can see computer connecting on it, but the multicast never start.If I use directed broadcast it works with good perfs, but the CPU processes of the 3750 go high because of the IP Input (Till 99%).If I remove the route map from the vlan interface which is on the ghosted network, the multicast works but with poor perfs.If I shutdown the vlan interface the multicast works well with good perfs.
It seems my problems are tied with the Vlan interfaces but I don't know why.
This is a sample of the config:
switch 1 provision ws-c3750g-24ts-1u
system mtu routing 1500
vtp domain SM
vtp mode transparent
ip routing

I am having trouble getting some multicast traffic across a link. I have a 3750G setup, with IP routing and IP multicast routing, between two laptops. This will eventually sit between two networks that cannot be physically connected to each other for security reasons. I have static joins on the ports but cannot see the multicast traffic on the receiver. I am attaching the latest config. The sender(10.10.4.2) sits on gi1/0/24 and the receiver(10.10.3.2) sits on gi1/0/1. I am using VLC to test this and it will connect if I point the receiver to the address of the sender, but will not receive any multicast. The multicast traffic is not making it to the 10.10.3 side, I used wire shark to verify that it was not making it across.

My IPTV connection works fine so far but as soon as I start watching TV I can't use my WiFi connection anymore. My router is an "Alice Modem 1121" (SIEMENS S1621-Z220-A) with 4 LAN ports and a WiFi interface (4th LAN port provides the IPTV). It is directly connected by wire to my PC's ethernet card for the IPTV and the internet is provided via the WiFi. When I activate the LAN connection the WiFi and internet connction stays up and requests can be sent but nothing returns anymore. Another device (iPod) has no problems with accessing the internet while IPTV is in use. I also have a Netgear WNR1000v3 router which I tried to use as AP instead but it's exactly the same problem. Unlucky the Netgear router is not supported to use dd-wrt firmware yet (I've found a step by step guide to prevent multicast floods with dd-wrt/ebtables). But maybe the Alice Modem can handle this problem on its own. I read some stuff about VLANs and splitting them but I have no clue how that would look like.
The "nas_0_1_34" is for the IPTV.

We have to connect two 3750G switches to some HP machines. Those machines have several network interfaces, which are going to be configured in several bondings. The load balancing mode they want to configure is mode 6, alb. We have investigated and it is: [code] Receive load balancing is achieved through ARP negotiation.We would like to know if it is supported to be connected to a 3750G an if an special configuration is needed.

I have faced a problem with configuring Cisco 3750G series switches as Sever farm switches with redudance.
servers have 2NIC (1GBps) and both are bridged for redundant connections.In both switches all ports get green coluor except one port on Secondary SW. I saw some Spanning tree block port status on that switch.when i type Show cdp neghbor command on switch i can see other switch through a server connected port. Also Spannig tree root bridge election is occured through that port . Simply i need to configure both switches to pass traffic through there uplinks them selves.. but it seems like Secondry switch pass its traffic through primary switch ( i think according to STP ) usinginterconnection of bridge port of a server.

We have a Cisco 3750G Core switch which has physical connections, each configured as trunks to two HP Access switches. The client who uses these access switches would like to put a link between the two, but this would create a loop.

I have a Nexus 3064 which is not recording source MAC addresses after a successful ARP. The switch is then flooding the entire vlan with unicast traffic.
The config is a boring single VLAN. One port (48) is going to a 6509. Not as a trunk, just extending the VLAN. There are SVI's on both switches. the default route for the Nexus users is the 6509's IP.The switch was basically, pulled out of the box, setup a single vlan(with jumbo frames) andan SVI, then plugged in the users. Nothing special.

I have a serious problem with nexus 7018, there're unicast flooding on one n7k, named n7k-1, which is the member of vPC domain combined with 2 N7Ks. [code]I had clean the mac-address-table, and all mac-address-tables had been synced fine, and the unicast flooding went away.
How could I fix the mac-address sync function between the modules ?

I'm having an issue with my network, where we're are experiencing random and brief network outages. They happen a couple times a day and last 5-10 seconds. when I check my two backbone switches (4506 : Supervisor: WS-X4516-10GE ,IOS : cat4500-ipbase-mz.122-31.SGA8.bin), STP remains normal and no topology change occurs.

how to configure igmp snooping on a 3560.
I have a pure L2 switching network and 2 hosts on the same vlan that want to communicate a protocol between each other using multicast packets.
I wanted to configure ip snooping only on this vlan and create a multicast group limited to only these 2 host ir order to make sure that the multicast traffic is only between both of them.
Since both are sender and receiver I´m not quite sure on how to configure this. In theory I also need to set an IP Multicast Address on the switch to where the hosts will send their multicast packets.
This is basically the network:
HOST_A---|SWITCH_A|==|SWITCH_B|---HOST_B

In the following topology
R1(f0/0)------------(f0/1)SW1(f0/2)------------R2
R1 is configured as host (no ip routing) with ip igmp join 239.10.10.10 on fa0/0 and R2 with ip pim sparse-mode on f0/0. SW1 is a Catalyst 3560 running IOS 12.2(25)SEE4 working at Layer 2 only in this topology (VLAN 1).
I configured SW1 for igmp snooping:
ip igmp snooping
ip igmp snooping vlan 1
Basically, I can see 'snooped' muticast group (via IGMP reports sent by R1)
SW1#sh ip igmp snooping group
Vlan Group Type Version Port List

I am unable to configure an interface using the "ip igmp filter <profile #>" command on a 2960G running 12.2(58)SE2. The switch allows me to create a profile using the "ip igmp profile <profile #>" global configuration command. It also lets me enable filtering with the global "ip igmp filter" command (which I didn't see in the documentation). But, the command is not accepted when configuring an interface. "ip igmp ?" does not even show "filter" as a valid auto-complete when in configure interface mode, and the command is rejected if I try to enter it.
I verified the command worked on a much earlier version of IOS, so it must have broken somewhere along the line. I'm wary of moving up to 15.0(1)SE. Is that a major IOS change?

I encountered a problem migrating configuration from Cisco 4500 with IOS 12.2(53)SG4 to Cisco 6500-VSS with IOS 12.2(33)SXI7.
With 4500, we had 2 servers with JBoss running multicast to build up the cluster. They used 239.X.X.X multicast IP. There was no need to configure "ip igmp snooping vlan XX static XXXX.XXXX.XXXX interface X" neither static arp entry.
When we migrated to 6500 in VSS, we had to do:
mac-address-table static XXXX.XXXX.XXXX vlan XX interface X disable-snooping
With this command, the JBoss cluster worked well. The question is, ¿Is there any difference regarding IGMP in 4500 versus 6500?

I am having problems with IGMP and QoS on CAT6500 platform with SUP720 engine.The problem is, it seems that all IGMP packets are getting marked with DSCP 48 when sent out of the switch regardless of any input service policy. I found several articles saying that PFC QoS does not apply to IGMP packets. However in IOS 15 that should be possible, but I didn't get it to work there either. [code]

I've got a pair of Nexus 7010's running vPC. I am having a Multicast issue with a cluster of Linux servers that need to talk Multicast for cluster/high-availability operation. All the servers need to talk to a single multicast address and I am having trouble getting them to communicate. I believe I need to enable IP IGMP Snooping Querier on the N7K's and it needs to be enabled on the VLAN where the servers reside. How to enable IP IGMP Snooping Querier on a VLAN ?

I have 3560e which doesn't appear to be passing igmp traffic to the upstream router
PC1 ----------- ASA ------------ PC2--------- 3560e ----------- 3825 -------------------- WAN --------------------- Router ------------- Server
My ASA runs SMR, has an igmp forward interface outside command on the inside and has a trunk port to the 3560e (V lans 32 & 48).PC2 is a test pc on the 3560e on vlan32. 3825 is my ISPs router on vlan32.
- if i try to access the stream from PC2 it works.
- if i try to access the stream from PC1, i see the igmp join leave my ASA onto the 3560E (i've captured on the 3560e's link to the ASA).
I've also captured on the ASA and i can see the igmp packet leave the outside interface but the join doesn't reach the 3825 (i've captured on the 3560e port facing the router and there is no join being forwarded).the switch is running in layer 2, 12.2(35r)SE1.

Our switch model is "Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3020 for HP" We are building HA (High Availability) Databases infrastructure.Currently, there are two nodes(hosts- servers) and two above switch for HA.
Oracle said we need to turn off the IGMP Snooping in order to use the multicasting for their interconnect communication.So my question is:
Q1> Is there any way to use Multicasting without turning off IGMP Snooping on Switch side?
Q2> If 'yes', how can we configure the switch for Multicasting ?
Oracle uses 230.0.1.0 & 224.0.0.251 IPs with 42000 range port for Multicasting communication.

I am IT teacher at a middle school in Nuremberg, Germany. We have in our school 5 VLANs, 4 Switchtes, 1 L3 switch and 1 router.
2 months ago the old L3 switch (Catalyst 3550-12T) is broken. In the short term I've borrowed a Catalyst 3750G-24, so that the network continues to function. Now a SG 300-10 switch was purchased. This should be configured the same as the 3550-12T or 3750-24G.The network looks like this (there are much more PCS than in this image):
VLAN ID
VLAN Interface
DHCP
DHCP-pool
[Code]....
The DHCP server in VLAN 30 is also a FOG server. The Fog server images all PCs in school. PCs in VLAN 10, 20 and 30 boot from PXE. The MS Server in VLAN 10 has been configured by the DHCP options 66 and 67.
The Catalyst 3750G-24 routes the multicast, but the SG 300-10 I do not have the option of using the commands ip multicast-routing distributedip pim sparse-dense-modeto work and must configure igmp. I'm having problems with the igmp-configuration on the SG 300-10. Therefore, I have uploaded the configuration of the 3750G-24 and the configuration of the SG 300-10 (without ACL).

I've been looking into IGMP snooping and have read that a L2 switch will forward multicast traffic to all ports connected to an interested receiver AND all mrouter ports. In a L2 'V' topology this results in all multicast traffic routed onto a VLAN being forwarded to the 2nd distribution switch. My question is how should a 6500 Sup720 deal with this unwanted multicast traffic? Both a Local SPAN of the RP and a Netdr capture suggest that this traffic is punted to the RP and ultimately dropped. Is this expected behavior or should the traffic be dropped in H/W?

I have to deploy a full IP-TV solution and the IGMP snooping must be supported on the switch.
I know the the ESW 520 support this protocol but the full IP-TV solution will manage uo to 200 set up boxes, does this switch support all this traffic?
I also have another question, what exactly mean "Combo SFP slots include one 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet port and 1 SFP-based Gigabit Ethernet slot for fiber, 1 port active at a time." ? Is when I use 1 port with LX sfp transcever the 3 other uplink ports will be inactive and I can't add another or trunk it with another switch?

i want to setup IGMP Snooping on the Managed Switch SG 300-10. I do it over the webinterface. Enable Bride Multicast Filtering, Forwarding Method IP Group Address and enable IGMP Snooping v3. In the local Network i stream up to 4 Multicast streams 239.1.1.1-239.1.1.4. The client vor the Multicast are IP setupboxes. If i connect PRTG Network Monitor over SNMP to see the Traffic on the ports i see that all Multicast streams are at every port. What is the false i do? I thought only the multicast stream that is shoosen at the client are forwarding and not all multicast streams. The IP STBs have only a 100Mbit network adapter and i have to muticast over 10 Streams (10Mbit per stream) over the local VLAN. So i think IGMP Snooping is the solution for me. Or need i also a Multicast router?

I have some problems with IGMP snooping feature on the SG300 switch. I want to filter multicast dinamycally with IGMP snooping. To configure our switch I use the web page: - In Multicast I first enable: Bridge Multicast Filtering Status Thzn I enable IGMP snooping ,Then I enable IGMP Snooping on my VLAN During my tests I stream a video (UDP multicast). This stream is present on all the ports of my VLAN with IGMP snooping normally configured. Also, I can't see any entry in the IGMP/MLD IP Multicast Group Table where I should normally see my multicast address.

I got Two Distribution Switches of Cisco 3750G. Each Distribution have two 3750G switches stacked. I also have one Cisco 3750V2 Access Switch connected to both Distribution. When I am checking for redundancy, I can only get redundancy test pass for one link not atall for other. If I have a link up with Distribution 1 only then its fine; but disappointment with Distribution 2 link. I can see that the switch priorities of Dist 2 is not correct ie. Master's priority is 10 and Member's is 15.
My question is that due to misconfigured priorities on Distribution 2 stack switches I am failing with redundancy if ONLY Dist 2 is up and Dist 1 is down.
