STATIC MULTICAST ROUTE COMMANDS
The static multicast route commands in the Command Line Interface (CLI) are listed (along with the appropriate
parameters) in the following table.
IP multicast static routes are used to configure static RPF check paths that don’t depend on the unicast route table. The
main goal of IP multicast static routes is to let multicast traffic diverge from unicast traffic.
Command
Parameters
create ipmroute
<network_address> rpf_address [<ipaddr> | null]
delete ipmroute
[<network_address> | all]
show ipmroute
{ <network_address>}
Each command is listed, in detail, in the following sections.
create ipmroute
Purpose
Used to create an ip multicast static route configuration entry.
Syntax
create ipmroute <network_address> rpf_address [<ipaddr> | null]
Description
Normally, when a IP multicast packet is received, the source IP address of the packet is used to
do the RPF check. When an RPF network is configured for network, and the source IP address
of the received IP multicast packet matches this network, the RPF network will be used to do
RPF check.
Parameters
network_address
– If the source IP address of the received IP multicast packet matches this
network, the RPF network is used to do RPF check.
ipaddr
– If it specifies a ip address, if the source IP address of the received IP multicast packet
match network_address, ipaddr will be used to check whether packet receive from legal
upstream interface. If it is set to null, it means that if the source IP address in the received IP
multicast packet match network_address, RPF check will always fail.
Restrictions
Only Administrator and Operator-level users can issue this command. Current, static multicast
routes only support PIM environment.
Usage examle:
To create an IP multicast static route entry:
DGS-3627:admin# create ipmroute 10.0.0.9/8 rpf_address 20.1.1.1
Command: create ipmroute 10.0.0.9/8 rpf_address 20.1.1.1
Success.
DGS-3627:admin#
delete ipmroute
Purpose
Used to delete an IP multicast static route configuration entry.
Syntax
delete ipmroute [<network_address>|all]
