Cisco Switching/Routing :: 6509 / Multicast Heartbeat On Servers
Feb 25, 2013
The two servers (red hat) use multicast for their heartbeat. Unrouted vlan 99 (only layer 2) is configured on the VTP Servers (6509).I have read this document [URL]
Switches 1 and 2 have IOS: c2960s-universalk9-mz.122-55.SE3.bin
and the 6509: s72033-advipservicesk9_wan-mz.122-18.SXF17a.bin
IGMP snooping is enabled on the 2960 switches.In order for the heartbeat of the servers to work, I have tried these solutions:disable igmp snooping for vlan 99 on switch-1 & switch-2. (No additional action was taken on the 6509). This didn't work. I expected that the multicast traffic would be sent as broadcast throughout the network, but for some reason it didn't work.on switch-1 & switch-2 configured "ip igmp snooping vlan 99 querier" (no additional actions on 6509). Didn't work either.on switch-1 & switch-2 configured "ip igmp snooping vlan 99 mrouter interface gigabitEthernet 1/0/25" & "ip igmp snooping vlan 99 mrouter interface gigabitEthernet 1/0/26" for the two connections to the 6509. Again no actions taken on 6509. Didn't work. I want static mac entries on the switches to be my last resort, since the number of red hat servers on the network is going to increase and I want to give a more generic solution to the issue.

I hve the above setup and I need to setup multicast between the 2 servers. The nexu7k is a layer 2 switch and the 6500 is a lyer3.Both servers would be sending/receving traffic.

How is it i can implement the command 'ip multicast rate-limit out group-list <access-list>' but i get the error "ip multicast rate-limit" command is not supported on 6509?
Is it an IOS limitation or a limitation of the switch series and subsequently can't be used at all?

I have a problem on my catalyst 6509 on which I would like to do the following things :
I have some Vlans in which multicast is enabled.
In tose Vlan theres is a router which is default router for equipements.
I had enabled multicast routing because some Vlan needs to exchange multicast informations, but I wolud like to make difference between Multicast traffic. For example I have 5 vlans:
Vlan 1 and 2 need to exchange Multicast informations but the don't need multicast information from Vlan 3 and 4
Vlan 3 and 5 need to exchange Multicast informations but the don't need multicast information from Vlan 1 and 2
Vlan 5 is independant Vlan but doesn't need to have multicast information from all others vlan.
Last problem, equipement on differents vlan can use the same Mulkticast group address. In this case, Multicast routing is not working between Vlan 1 to Vlan 2 and Vlan 3 to Vlan 4.

I start configuring Cisco 2821 router for multicast . First short description and attached sheme explanation. Let we say I have small network with 100 users. One router and Cisco switch 3560. Two VLAN’s, one for data another for multicast. Data from internet works fine but now I want to connect multicast servers (or source of more multicast streams) from another subnet. Router have three interfaces.I expect there should be no problems with multicast configuration, but unfortunately it is not like I expect. What I did ?

I am attempting to block all FTP traffic on port 21 from the servers in my network, and only allow FTP from one server to go out.
I have created the following ACL
access-list 101 Permit ip any any
access-list 101 Permit 21 1.1.1.1 0.0.0.0 any
access-list 101 Deny 21 any any
and have applied it to my truck VPN that goes up to my firewall
int Vlanxxx
ip access-group 101 out
But when i test ftp is still allowed by all servers.

i want to enable net flow for multicast on my 6509-E with IOS s72033-advipservicesk9_wan-mz.122-33.SXI2a. I've checked the ios via software adviser to be sure that this feature is supported: Minimum Compatible Release 5 Additional Software

I've used the command "ip multicast net flow output-counters", but that is not enough, i guess. It is required to use further interface commands like "ip multicast netflow....", isn't it? But this commands are not available:

I try to pass multicast traffic between two vrf on the same 3750 switch. I have IP services IOS and sdm template routing.
here is my config:
ip routing
!
ip vrf vpn2
rd 1:1
mdt default 232.1.1.1
route-target export 1:1
route-target import 1:1
[code]....
Now I'm stuck - I don't know what to do to pass multicast traffic. Do I have any chance to run this config on 3750 chassis?Perhaps "Configuring Multicast VPN Extranet Support" document will be useful, but it concerns Catalyst 6500? [URL]

We want to implement multicast on our network. We are going to use for online teaching purpose. I am very new at Multicast and not have much idea about it. We are not running any routing protocol in our network, only static route. The multicast server is located at One of our office and it is connected with L2 (Cisco 2960) switch, L2 switch is connected to L3 switch(Cisco 4948). L3(Cisco 4948) and Core Switch(Cisco 6509) with FWSM are connected with E-3 link with tunnel. Router 1 and Router 2 are connected with P2P ILL links which are terminated at serial interface. The Multicast Server IP is 192.168.2.131/25. The scenario of our network are mentioned below:
Multicast Server--->(L2 Switch)--->(L3 Switch)--->(Core Switch)--->(FWSM)--->(Router 1)---->(Router 2)--->(L2 Switch)--->(Multicast Client)
We have created a seprate vlan (i.e. vlan 102, interface IP is 192.168.2.129/25) for multicast at L3 switch, enable multicast routing, defined rp-address(i.e. 192.168.2.129/25), enable sparse-dense mode at multicast vlan as well as at some other vlan also for testing purpose and joined multicast group (i.e. Multicast IP is 224.3.3.5). At core switch we have also enabled multicast routing, defined rp-address (i.e. 19.268.2.129/25), enable sparse-dense mode at user vlan and inside vlan of FWSM and joined multicast group at user vlan and inside vlan. At FWSM we have enabled multicast routing, defined rp-address(192.168.2.129), doesn’t find any option to enable sparse-dense mode and joined Multicast group at inside vlan and router 1 vlan. At Router 1, we have configured the same thing. We have configured mroute at all the devices. We are able to ping from end to end. We are testing multicast by Multicast IP checker tool (provided by vendor). Multicast is working fine at L2 switch, L3 switch and Core Switch, but not from Router 1. Ping is reachable from Router 1. After doing mtrace at Router 1, the following output has come:
Router 1 (Mtrace with destination address 192.168.2.131)
mtrace 172.21.15.2 192.168.2.131 224.3.3.5
Type escape sequence to abort.
Mtrace from 172.21.254.50 to 192.168.2.131 via group 224.3.3.5
From source (?) to destination (?)
[Code] .....
If , we do mtrace from gateway IP address(i.e. 192.168.2.129) as destination address then mtrace is getting completed, but if mtrace is done from Mutlicast server IP address(192.168.2.131) as destination address, then mtrace is not getting completed.
We have connected one laptop at Router 1 vlan to test Multicast. The host, which is connected to Router 1 vlan is able to send multicast packet to other host and other host at different vlan are receiving it , but it’s unable to receive multicast packet send by other host of different vlan.
Do I need to enable igmp snooping at L2 switch, L3 switch and Core Switch ? I am not able to understand or can't figure out where i have configured wrong.

First step: enable multicast routing
Second step: on both interfaces (Fe 0/1 and Fe 0/2) - ip pim sparse-mode
Third step: configure switch that users are connected to access port in VLAN 222 (temporary to see if multicast work)
When I start VLC on computer nothing happend. If I try to connect computer on same subnet where is source of multicast streams it works fine.What I am doing wrong ? Is there anything about routing ? All subnets are directly connected. RP is not needed if I have one router or ?

I am configuring multicast in a environment where I have a 4506 at each site (4 total) and a 6506 as the core. Each 4506 is connected via layer 3 to the 6506. I have a mix of 3560s, 3548s, and 2960s connected to the 4506s and the 6506 via layer 2 trunk
I have multiple multicast sources and hosts communicating at a time (multiple cameras sending video / multiple computers receiving video). So this is not a scenario where there is 1 sender and many receivers. This would be many senders (~50) and some receivers (~10)
Sample Diagram:
->3560
|
6506 --> 4506 --> 3548
| |
| --> 2960
|
4506 --> 2960
|
-->3548
I configured ip multicast-routing on each of the 4506s and on the 6506. IGMP snooping is on by default on the 3560 and 2960 switches. CGMP is on by default on the 3548 switches.
I set up PIM sparse-dense mode and IGMP version 3 on each of the layer 3 interfaces for the 4506s and 6506 where they connect and on each VLAN that is sending or receiving multicast. Multicast is working throughout the network, however I am looking to verify the configuration as I scale this out to more clients on the network.
#1 - Is it correct to us sparse-dense mode in this configuration?
#2 - Do I need to configure a rendezvous points using AUTO-RP? (ip pim send-rp-announce INTERFACE scope TTL). Not sure here if I need to designate this and what to choose. Right now I do not have this and it is working, but documentation seems to infer that I need to designate this.
#3 - Is there any other configuration settings I should be considering? I hard to find real world configurations of multicast as examples or people that know multicast routing well.

I would like test multicast routing with cisco1801.i create 2 Vlan. Vlan 200 (192.168.200.x) affect Fastethernet 1, Vlan 130 (192.168.130.x) Fastethernet 5.
Version IOS is : adipservice-k9 124-9.t1
ip multicast-routing
#int Vlan 130
ip address 192.168.130.254 255.255.255.0
Ip pim dense-mode
#int Vlan 200
Ip address 192.168.200.254 255.255.255.0
Ip pim dense-mode
I used VLC for my test.When i connect source (224.10.10.10) and recever ( Udp://@224.10.10.10:1234), that's ok!But, source is on the Vlan 200 and reicever on the Vlan 130, is not good!I test with "sparse-mode", i have same problem.

I have a subnet with a GPS clock on it that connects into a Cisco 3750. The 3750 has another subnet hanging off of it that connects into a firewall then to a server. I need the server to get time from the GPS clock. Any way to pass the NTP through the 3750? The 3750 has the 3750-IPBase code running on it so the multicast support is limited. I am under regulatory restrictions that only allow traffic to flow from the higher security level (were the time server is) to lower security level (were the server is). This prevents me from having the server go to the clock for updates.

I'm trying to configure multicast between 2 VLANs on a Cisco 886VA running IOS 15.2 (3) T1 (advanced security). While I can set the global "ip multicast-routing" I cannot "ip pim sparse-mode" on my interfaces - ip pim is actually unknown and also doesn't appear in the interface's ip subcommand list when using "?".
The feature navigator says pim is supported on my platform and IOS version.
My config looks like this:

I recently created a stack using (2) 3750x switches. I have three vlans on the stack (1,105,241) Vlan 105 is configured on 6509 core switches with multicasting and are connected to the stack via gigabit fiber. It is working well with clients on the Master or SW1, however clients on SW2 do not participate in multicasting Any client pc that is connected to SW2 vlan 105 does not show up in the "sh ip igmp snooping group" command. I can statically assign a client on SW2 to the mcast groups but but they fail to register on their own. I can take the cable connection from SW2 and plug it into an SW1 Vlan 105 port and it immediately becomes a member of the groups. I can then connect it back to the SW2 port and it disappears from the group membership. IGMP and PIM are configured with the defaults.

I have a 3560X switch with interfaces 36-48 on the same LAN. All interfaces are switchports. Hosts on 38, 39 and 40 are multicast senders: all sending to the same single multicast address. Hosts on 36 and 37 are receivers, having joined that multicast group. I created an SVI for the LAN and put it in ip pim passive. (That is the only PIM mode allowed for an SVI with my IOS.) Show ip igmp snooping groups shows that 36 and 37 are the only interfaces in this group. I attach a laptop to interface 42 and Wireshark, and the laptop is receiving the multicast traffic. The laptop does not join the group. I expect it would not see the traffic.

I have the need to filter multicast between vlans as described below. PIM Sparse-Mode is being utilized for this multicast network and changing any Vlan to PIM Dense mode is not an option.
- Vlan 217 and Vlan 4 should not be communicating on mcast with any other vlan, including eachother (each vlan isolated).
-Vlan 64 and Vlan 80 are able to communicate witch each other on mcast but not with any other vlans (isolated vlan group).
-All other vlans can communicate mcast freely.
What I've created thus far is below. It does not appear to be the most elegant solution and would be difficult for the administrators to adjust as new requirements come along. Yes, I will be adding the appropriate link-local multicast addresses so as to not break routing and other dependent technologies.
ip access-list ext ANY_CONN
permit ip any any
ip access-list ext MCAST_INTRA_217
permit ip 224.0.0.0 15.255.255.255 133.106.197.32 255.255.224.0
permit ip 133.106.197.32 255.255.224.0 224.0.0.0 15.255.255.255
ip access-list ext MCAST_ISOLATE

I've been handed a requirement to try and get a multicast server working on my setup. Trouble is, I don't know if I can with the feature set I have on my switches. What is desired is that a multicast server (stand alone, but network connected, obviously) be accessible by everyone on the local network (multiple V LAN's, multiple SVI's) in the building.
All users will be connected to the one switch stack, although some will want to be wireless (which is one of the separate V LAN's) - I don't care if the wireless requirement goes by the wayside - they can sod off. :-) The main purpose will be multicast, high quality video.
I have a single switch stack consisting of two (soon to be 3) WS-C3750X-48P switches running the IP BASE feature set.
Question - can I do this on IP BASE, or do I need to upgrade to IP SERVICES?
If I can do it on IP BASE, does anyone have any links/pointers to setup this properly? Currently installed IOS is 12.2(58)SE2.

pinging the SVI on the core and or pinging on the core to other devices resulted in MAJOR latencies, packet loss due to the cpu usage, etc.... no other network operations were affected, i could communicate with the rest of the network, and under 1-2ms latencies. i noticed it due to my opsview server flagging the core as down (SNMP OID's wouldnt return a value)
it lasted the whole time i was multicasting, i kept a close eye on it. i highly considered canceling my job, but everything ran smooth.when i looked at the cpu sorted history i saw 2 processes, IP Input, and cat4k mgmnt hipri

I have a 2960G that I keep on the bench as a work switch. I assigned an IP address to it. The techs have had trouble imaging workstations using GHOST. Do any config changes need to be made to enable multicast to work? Everything is in VLAN1 at this point and the GHOST server is also the DHCP server.

We have a couple of switches with a L3 Vlan 238 interface which runs PIM SM and OSPF, and HSRP. We have connected to this same segment telemetry processors which have raw socket interfaces configured - which means it picks up all IP packets which hit the interface and forwards them along.So we dont want the processor to recevie any of the 224.x.x.x switch housekeeping traffic? is there anyway to prevent that ?

A 2960G switch is doing IGMP snooping and is configured as the querier. There is no multicast routing.
Port 1 - Video Set Top Box A
Port 2 - Video Set Top Box B
Port 3 - Multicast Source
Both Set Top Boxes A & B are set to receive the video delivered in the same multicast group.Every 60 seconds the switch generates an IGMP General Query message which is sent out all the ports in the VLAN.There is a 10 second timeout in the Query message. Devices that wish to join (or remain joined) to the multicast group have this amount of time to respond with a Join Message directed at the multicast group. Devices deliberately wait a random duration within the timeout time before replying.
For some reason (which I don't understand), if the switch receives a Join request message from a Set Top Box, it forwards that messages out of the port to the other Set Top Box. So, let's say Box A responded with the Join Message first. Box B now sees the Join message and now thinks there is another multicast receiver on its branch of the network, so it suppresses its Join Message to avoid sending an unnecessary message.If by chance Box A responds first 2 or 3 times in a row, the switch will not have seen a response from port 2 for awhile, so it prunes that port from the multicast. Eventually, Box B responds first and gets re-joined onto the multicast. It is now Box A that may get pruned if it is consecutively slower.
How do I prevent the switch from replicating the Join message out to the other Set Top Box? I have verified this behavior with Wireshark. But, I believe the Join message is only supposed to be forwarded to a multicast router (if there is one - and there isn't), not to other ports.The 2960 is running 12.2(58) SE2.

I am trying to resolve a situation where we need to send multiple (2 atleast) multicast feeds from a source to our multilayer switch (3560x).
The problem with the source is that it can only send a feed to a single switch at a given time. It can not send 2 (identical) feeds to two 3560x devices (on 2 different subnets/vlans). I was wondering if i could make the two 3560x devices appear as 1 device (using virtual chassis system or a similar feature). I am running ip services IOS feature set (c3560e-universalk9-mz.122-58.SE2.bin).
