special implementation of MC

Jan 04, 2006 0 Replies

Hi all



one of my customers tries to implement his own version of multicast. His serveres send hello-messages with src-ip of the server and dst-ip



228.111.0.1. As testetd in a flat network all other servers get those MCs and work so far. The difference in this case is that the servers send no IGMP-messages. When now implemented in a routed network the hellos dont work anymore network-wide.

Beside that a best-practice implementation of MC works in sparse mode.



any suggestions to implement such a scenario?



tnx /s
