Mutlicasting VOSS only

Mutlicasting VOSS only

Using 5420 as edge device, running VOSS 8.10.0.0. One vlan (33) is for multicasting. Currently both the sending unit and receiving unit are on the same switch, and both ports are on the same vlan. The two ports are untagged. The multicasting is working (sender is a PC to an encoder, receiver is a decoder to a TV, with network in between). But it jerks. Just wondering if I missed something in the config.

Snippets of the running config.

router isis
spbm 1
spbm 1 nick-name b.54.25
spbm 1 b-vid 4051-4052 primary 4051
spbm 1 multicast enable
spbm 1 ip enable
exit

vlan create 33 name "AHEC AV" type port-mstprstp 0
vlan members 33 1/1-1/48 portmember
vlan i-sid 33 20033
interface vlan 33
ip igmp proxy
ip igmp snooping
ip igmp upnp-filter
ip igmp snoop-querier-addr 172.18.1.55

ip igmp version 3

exit

This switch is hooked up to a 8400 switch for further routing, but the multicast traffic is just within the switch (5420). The address of 172.18.1.55 is the clip address of the 5420 switch. In the future, traffic may go to one more switch, also a 5420.

Thanks for all the help.

Hi @XTRMUser 

No matter if one IP exist on this vlan, config-lite will work without any impacting on routing functionality.

Hi, XTREMuser,

Why not just using config-lite for multicast ?

(config) vlan create 33 name MULTICAST type port-mstprstp 0
(config)#int vlan 33
(config-if)#mvpn-isid 0
(config-if)#ip spb-multicast enable
 
That's all folks and works great. No querier to configure anymore.
