Cisco WAN :: 4948 / 6509 / 2960 - How To Implement Multicast On Network

Aug 4, 2011

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.

Cisco WAN :: 2960 - Block Outgoing Multicast On L2 Port?

Aug 2, 2012

is it possible to block outgonig multicast L2 frames on an Ethernet port in outgoing direction on a 2960 Switch?
 
I tried the "switchport block multicast" command, but the description of this feature relates to only "unknown" multicast!?
 
But what means "unknown multicast"? Even if activated, I see a lot of multicast traffic going out that port: IGMP, PIM, SSDP, HSRP, OSPF, .. and also pings and VLC streams to multicastaddresses (ip igmp snooping disabled).
 
I also tried to map a "mac access-list" to that port, but the "mac access-group" interface command is restricted to only incoming traffic.
 
Reason: we assume, that there are a couple of specific enddevices, that might react strange to some multicast. Therefor we would like to block outgoing multicast on that specific ports.
 
I tested it on a 2960 12.2(53)SE2

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.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 2960 Drops Multicast Receiver

Jun 17, 2012

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.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 2960 - Test Multicast Traffic

Dec 6, 2012

Attached setup i am planning for testing multicast output from different vendors using  VLC and STB.  This Setup made to test the picture quality between the vendors at the same time on the multi viewer screen. 

1) Only a 2960 Gig port switch with only one L2 v lan with IGMP snooping enabled. 
In this scenario where Source and receivers are in the same L2 v lan ( no L3 interface is involved) hope i would able to test all the multicast sources with out any additional configuration on the Cisco switch.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 2960 - Local Multicast Range Is Not Passing Between Sites

Jan 29, 2012

[URL]
 
We found out that only local multicast ip address range is not passing between the sites, any other range is passing, local range is 239.0.0.0 and above.
 
We have two different datacenters, the internal switch is 2960S (Stacked) with 1-10 vlans and the external switch is 3560E, the external switch is adding another tag (qinq, dot1q), vlan 611, and send the packets to metro line to the other site.
 
on the other site we have the same configuration.
 
internal switch from site A is configured with igmp querier and the internal switch port on site B connected to the external switch is configured as mrotuer port.
 
multicast and igmp is passig between the sites, but the local multicast range is not passing, igmp filterring is configured on all port but no profile is defined and no ports are filterred, on the external switch igmp snooping is disabled.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 6509 - Multicast Routing Preference

Nov 14, 2012

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.

Cisco :: Time Synchronization Via NTP Between Catalyst 2960 And 6509?

Jul 1, 2012

I have a problem with the time synchronization via NTP between a Catalyst 2960 and Catalyst 6509. When I configure the 6509 switch as a NTP reference on the 2960, it does not synchronize with the 6509's NTP server. There is no reachability or ACL-related issue between both switches.
 
As soon as I configure a second Catalyst 6509 (which is completely identical to the other 6509 and in the same subnet) as a NTP server for the 2960, the time sync with the second 6509 happens immediality.
 
The first 6509 switch works as a NTP reference for at least 50 other switches and routers in the network - so why not for this one more switch? I checked some "debug ntp packet" and "debug ntp events" outputs and can clearly watch the NTP requests going out of the 2960, but on the 6509 just nothing happens - no debug outputs for this specific 2960, while requests from other devices come in all the time.
 
Maybe you have already experienced this strange behaviour in the past or got some deeper knowledge in the Cisco NTP server implementation. I could think of some sort of "maximum client limit" in the IOS NTP server, but could not find any mechanism like this in the standard NTP specification. Eventually, you can approve that this is a IOS-specific issue.

Cisco :: Implementing The Multicast In The Network

Jun 5, 2012

The desktop team has asked me to set up multicast in our network with building PC's as they will be deploying a few hundred of them starting in two weeks. We currently do not have multicast set up, and the only experience I have with it was during my certification studies, so I have a lot to catch up on quick. They will be sending the build traffic from a single server. The network environment is simple: a 3750 stack as the router/distribution layer and mainly 3550's as access. The PC's that they will be imaging will be on one VLAN that is already designated for PXE builds. This VLAN is across multiple switches. Is it possible to just enable the multicast features on a single VLAN? I have been reading around but not finding much other that very in-depth Cisco papers.

Cisco WAN :: 3845 - Implementing IP Multicast With PPPOE In DSL Network

Oct 2, 2011

I have a major problem regarding implementing IP Multicast in an ADSL network. The diagram of our network is attached. In every Access Network , there is only IP DSLAMs which are connected via Metro ethernet links ( L2 links) to the main site. So there is no Router or Layer 3 Link to the main site. In the main site there is an Aggregator router which is an PPPOE server which terminates subscriber's PPPOE sessions. All the Access networks and subscribers are just connected to one Aggregator and they use that one as PPPOE server. It is an Cisco 3845 Router. Then the Aggregator is connected to Core network and behind the Core network is an Streaming server which streams in Multicast. IP Multicast Routing is configured in Spars-Dense mode in all routers in Core network and also the Aggregator and it is working properly. So the sucscribers are able to join the multicast stream and the very last router in the path toward the subscribers( which is the Aggregator) does the Multicast replications.

There are two problems we faced:
 
1- Since all the subscribers from different Access Network use the same Aggregator in the central site as PPPOE Server, all the connection are terminated on that router. The goal is to use the uplink bandwidth of the Access networks to the central site more efficiently and if e.g 20 subscribers watches the same channel, it just consumes as the amount of one channel due to doing IP Multicast.Now the problem is that when for example 2 subscribers of the same Access Network (in the same POP site) connect to the same stream, the amount of bandwidth used between the central site and the Access network is double. It happens because the aggregator activates IGMP on every virtual-access lines for every PPPOE subscribers who wants to joint the stream. So it can not recognized these two subscribers are from the same Access network. Therefore, the result is that although it is doing Multicast, it does not save the bandwidth because it activates IGMP group on every subscriber's virtual access line for his PPPOE connection. So is there any solution to this problem? Something came to my mind that we need to implement a separate aggregator for every Access network which means that we have to place a router for every access site and it will be expensive for us. But I think in that case every local aggregator can do IP Multicat routing and it saves the bandwidth definitely. Any better solution that may solve our problem using the same topology?
 
2- Another problem is that when the subscriber's CPE are configured in bridge mode and subscribers set-up a PPPOE connection on their PCs, they are able to join the multicast stream properly. But when they put their CPE in router mode and have their ADSL modems as PPPOE client, they are not able to join the Multicast stream. i.e the ADSL modem is doing NAT and routing and it connects to PPPOE server using username/password credentials. I also tried a feature in ADSL modems called "IGMP support" when I wanted to create the WAN settings. But it did not work. I am not sure but I think that we need "IGMP Proxy" feature on subscriber's CPE.

Home Network :: Prevent Multicast From Flooding Wifi?

Apr 12, 2011

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.
