Please log in for more thread options I'll be taking my CCNP routing exam soon (the new BSCI) and would like to get a multicasting lab going. I was also thinking that whilst I was doing this, it would be a good opportunity to play around with Cisco IPTV, as I can get hold of some cheap Cisco Broadcast servers (3411 and 3423's). I already have about 6 x 2610 routers that were given free from work, a couple of 2900XL switches that are probably useless, and a 3550 EMI switch. A couple of questions, if anyone would be so kind as to answer them... i) Is the hardware I mention above enough for a multicasting/ BSCI lab? ii) As for the IPTV lab, how does IPTV work exactly? According to the Cisco document at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/conntsw/ps1869/products_administration_guide_chapter09186a0080193b5f.html The process is video file>IPTV server> Multicast enabled router> Client
PC
Is there anything else that I need? And how does the IPTV server connect to the router, is it via a straighforward LAN (i.e thru a switch). Finally, the IPTV servers run a MS Server implementation apparently. Do I need any other software to get this running? Any help would be *greatly* appreciated. Thanks | ||||||||||
