I am relatively new to multicast and I am in the process of bringing up a new Checkpoint HA solution. The checkpoint will have cisco on all sides. In a layer two envirnment, everything works well.
I have not yet configured the cisco routers, and am somewhat confused with all the terminoligy. The router will need to send to a non multicast IP address that uses a multicast mac. All the examples show multicast IP, which I am not using.
I think all I need to do is:
1) Turn on multicast routing 2) enable pim dense mode on the interfaces facing the checkpoints.This seems to be too simple to be correct. What am I missing?
As I said, I am new to multicast, so any help would definately be appreciated.
