Traffic: Setup Multicast Traffic
Setup information:Multicast source port: IP=1.1.1.1
Multicast destination port: IP=1.1.1.2, G=224.0.0.1
Traffic (S=1.1.1.1, G=224.0.0.1)
For sending multicast traffic ( if multicast routing is already working) you will need to perform the following:
1. Configure IGMP protocol on the Multicast Destination ports
2. Configure the multicast traffic
Configuration steps:
1. Configure IGMP protocol on the Multicast Destination ports
Enable IGMP protocol on the Multicast Destination ports
Make sure that IP addresses are configured properly. The Protocol Interface node button should be green:
Click on IGMP protocol node and go to Hosts tab.
Change the version of IGMP to 3 if necessary and set the number of groups to 1
Assign the connected interface and check the Enable box
Configure multicast destination port as IGMP host for multicast address G=224.0.0.1
Click on IGMP tab and go to Group Ranges:
In the Group IP configure the multicast address and enable.
Start the IGMP protocol from the button:
2. Create the multicast traffic:
Chose to add a L2-3 Item.
On the destination side click on the button with the cursor on. Select the destination as multicast:
*** Another way to set the traffic stream is to directly select as destination IGMP-> Multicast range.
***In order for statistics to work properly in case you have more ports as destination for multicast traffic make sure that Merge Destination range is checked
just the type of guides I like - simple, clear and to the point :-)
