Hello,
we recently purchased the POE++ Switch 5420M-24-4YE. Our application requires Multicast. We tried to set it up but it doesn't work. Can you help us walk through the steps.
This is what we have done so far:
Enabled IGMP Snooping
Enabled PIM
Thank you.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Which OS are you using? Fabric Engine or Switch Engine? In Fabric enable multicast for SPBM.
In Switch Engine (EXOS):
Remember that only one querier exists per LAN segment and it is the lowest IP in VLAN.
What are the results of show igmp vlan <your service VLAN> ? Do you see there your application?
PIM (SM/DM) is required only when you are going to provide multicast service for another broadcast domain than the IGMP source. If it is the case, please check the TTL (Time-To-Live) set by your application because sometimes applications (VLC is the example I know) sets this attribute by default to "1" which doesn't allow any multicast routing at all.
