(Optional) Configuring an SSM Group Policy

Context

If a user joins an any-source multicast (ASM) group, configure a source-specific multicast (SSM) group policy in the virtual switching instance (VSI) to add the multicast group address to the SSM group address range.

By default, the access control list (ACL) applied to an SSM group policy denies all multicast groups. To exclude specific group addresses from the SSM group address range, use a rule permit source any rule with deny rules in the ACL.

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run vsi vsi-name

    The VSI view is displayed.

  3. Run igmp-snooping ssm-policy basic-acl-number

    An SSM group policy is configured.

    By default, SSM group addresses range from 232.0.0.0 to 232.255.255.255. After you configure an SSM group policy, the multicast groups specified in the SSM policy are treated as SSM groups.
