Configure IP Multicast config-lite for Fabric Connect
Before you begin
Create a VLAN. For more information see, VLAN Configuration
About this task
You can now enable SPB Multicast on that VLAN without configuring an IP address.
Note
If a VRF with the same I-SID already exists on the device, the VLAN is associated with the existing VRF when you enter mvpn-isid on the VLAN.
Note
You cannot have an IP address and mvpn-isid configured on the same VLAN at the same time.Procedure
- In the navigation pane, expand Configuration > VLAN.
- Select VLANs.
- Select the Advanced tab.
- In the appropriate VLAN row, for mvpnIsidStatus select Static.
- In the mvpnIsidValue column type the I-SID number.
Note
MAC offset is not currently configurable from EDM.- Select Apply.
- Optional:
Configure a routed SPB querier
source IP address.
- Select the Configuration tab.
- Select the appropriate IP, and then select IGMP.
- Select the Interface tab.
- Enter the address in the ExtnRoutedSpbQuerierAddr field.
- Select Apply.
- Select the Advanced tab.
- In the appropriate VLAN row, for SpbMulticast, select Enable.
- Select Apply.
Advanced Field Descriptions
Use the data in the following table to use the Advanced tab.
Name |
Description |
---|---|
Id |
Specifies the VLAN ID in the range of 1 to 4059. By default, VLAN IDs 1 to 4059 are configurable and the system reserves VLAN IDs 4060 to 4094 for internal use. On switches that support the vrf-scaling and spbm-config-mode boot configuration flags, if you enable these flags, the system also reserves VLAN IDs 3500 to 3998. VLAN ID 1 is the default VLAN and you cannot create or delete VLAN ID 1. |
Name |
Specifies the name of the VLAN. |
IfIndex |
Specifies the logical interface index assigned to the VLAN. |
Type |
Specifies the type of VLAN:
|
Isid |
Specifies the Service Instance Identifier (I-SID) number assigned to a customer VLAN (C-VLAN). The default value is 0, which indicates that no I-SID is assigned. |
Isid Name |
Specifies the name of the I-SID. |
Origin |
Specifies the origin of VLAN configuration, either manually configured through CLI or dynamically configured through RADIUS. |
ProtocolId |
Specifies the network protocol for protocol-based VLANs. If the VLAN type is not protocol-based, a value of None displays in the Basic tab ProtocolId field. |
AgingTime |
Specifies the timeout period for dynamic VLAN membership. A potential VLAN port is made ACTIVE after it receives a packet that matches the VLAN; if no such packet is received for AgingTime seconds, the port is no longer active. The default is 600. |
MacAddress |
Specifies the MAC address assigned to the virtual router interface for this VLAN. This field is relevant only after the VLAN is configured for routing. This MAC address is used as the Source MAC in routed frames and ARP replies. |
Vlan Operation Action |
Performs an operation on the VLAN. The values are:
The default is none. |
Result |
Specifies the result code after you perform an action. |
NlbMode |
Enables or disables Microsoft Network Load Balancing (NLB) operations on the VLAN. The default is disabled. |
SpbMulticast |
Enables or disables IP Multicast over Fabric Connect. The default is disabled. |
SpbPimGatewayMulticast |
Enables or disables SPB-PIM Gateway Multicast on a VLAN. The default is disabled. |
RmonEnable |
Enables or disables Remote Monitoring (RMON) on the interface. The default is disabled. |
Ipv6FhsSnoopDhcpEnable |
Enables or disables IPv6 dhcp snooping on a VLAN. The default is disabled. |
Ipv6FhsNDInspectionEnable |
Enables or disables neighbor discovery (ND) inspection on a VLAN. The default is disabled. |
DvrEnable |
Enables or disables Distributed Virtual Routing (DvR) on a VLAN that is configured on the DvR Controller. The default is disabled. Note:
You must enable DvR on every VLAN that is configured on a DvR Controller. |
DvrGwIpv4Addr |
Specifies the DvR gateway IPv4 address for a VLAN. Important:
Ensure that you configure the same gateway IPv4 address on all Controllers in the DvR domain that belong to a VLAN. |
DvrGwIpv4OneIp |
Enables or disables the DvR One IP for a VLAN. The default is disabled (false). |
DvrVrrpElection Note:
Exception: not supported on 5320 Series or 5420 Series. |
Identifies the DvR VLAN, and associated I-SID, to become the primary Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) router through the election process. You can identify only one VLAN for election per DvR Controller. By default, no VLAN is configured as the DvR VRRP election VLAN. |
MvpnIsidValue |
Configures the MVPN I-SID value for the VLAN. |
MAC
Offset Note: This parameter is not currently
configurable from
EDM.
|
Allows you to add an offset parameter to the MVPN I-SID. This is an optional value and the range is 0-511. |
MvpnIsidStatus |
Identifies the MVPN I-SID status. CONFIG indicates that the VRF was created manually and DYNAMIC indicates that the VRF was created by configuring an MVPN I-SID on a VLAN. |
Interface Field Descriptions
Use the data in the following table to use the Interface tab.
Name |
Description |
---|---|
IfIndex |
Shows the interface where IGMP is enabled. |
QueryInterval |
Configures the frequency (in seconds) at which the interface transmits IGMP host query packets. The default is 125. |
Status |
Shows the IGMP row status. If an interface uses an IP address and PIM-SM is enabled, the status is active. Otherwise, it is notInService. |
Version |
Configures the version of IGMP (1, 2, or 3) that you want to configure on this interface. For IGMP to function correctly, all routers on a LAN must use the same version. The default is version 2. |
OperVersion |
Shows the version of IGMP that currently runs on this interface. |
Querier |
Shows the address of the IGMP querier on the IP subnet to which this interface attaches. |
QueryMaxResponseTime |
Configures the maximum response time (in tenths of a second) advertised in IGMPv2 general queries on this interface. You cannot configure this value for IGMPv1. Smaller values enable a router to prune groups faster. The default is 100 tenths of a second (equal to 10 seconds.) Important:
You must configure this value lower than the QueryInterval. |
WrongVersionQueries |
Shows the number of queries received with an IGMP version that does not match the interface. You must configure all routers on a LAN to run the same version of IGMP. If the interface receives queries with the wrong version, this value indicates a version mismatch. |
Joins |
Shows the number of times this interface added a group membership, which is the same as the number of times an entry for this interface is added to the cache table. This number gives an indication of the amount of IGMP activity over time. |
Robustness |
Tunes for the expected packet loss of a network. This value is equal to the number of expected query packet losses for each serial query interval, plus 1. If you expect a network to lose query packets, increase the robustness value. The default value of 2 means that the switch drops one query for each query interval without the querier aging out. |
LastMembQueryIntvl |
Configures the maximum response time (in tenths of a second) inserted into group-specific queries sent in response to leave group messages. This value is also the time between group-specific query messages. You cannot configure this value for IGMPv1. Decrease the value to reduce the time to detect the loss of the last member of a group. The range is from 0–255 and the default is 10 tenths of second. As a best practice, configure this parameter to values greater than 3. If you do not need a fast leave process, you can configure values greater than 10. (The value 3 is equal to 0.3 seconds and 10 is equal to 1 second.) |
OtherQuerierPresent Timeout |
Shows the length of time that must pass before a multicast router determines that no other querier exists. If the local router is the querier, the value is 0. |
FlushAction |
Configures the flush action to one of the following:
|
RouterAlertEnable |
Instructs the router to ignore IGMP packets that do not contain the router alert IP option. If you disable this variable (default configuration), the router processes IGMP packets regardless of the status of the router alert IP option. Important:
To maximize network performance, configure this parameter according to the version of IGMP currently in use.
|
SsmSnoopEnable |
Enables SSM snoop. |
SnoopQuerierEnable |
Enables IGMP Layer 2 Querier. |
SnoopQuerierAddr |
Specifies the pseudo address of the IGMP snoop querier. |
ExplicitHostTrackingEnable |
Enables or disables IGMPv3 to track hosts for each channel or group. The default is disabled. You must select this field if you want to use fast leave for IGMPv3. |
McastMode |
Indicates the protocol configured on the VLAN.
|
ExtnUpnpFilterEnable |
Enables Universal Plug and Play (uPnP) Filtering to filter multicast packets destined for a specific range. The default is disabled. |
ExtnUpnpFilterAddress |
Indicates the multicast destination IP address to filter on an IGMP-enabled interface. The default is 239.255.255.250/32. |
ExtnUpnpFilterAddressMask |
Indicates the IGMP uPnP Filtering IP subnet to which this interface is attached. |
SnoopOrigin |
Specifies the origin of IGMP Snooping configuration on the port. The supported values are:
|
ExtnRoutedSpbQuerierAddr |
Specifies the IP address of the SPB querier. |
