Function

The igmp ssm-mapping enable command enables SSM mapping on an interface.

The undo igmp ssm-mapping enable command disables SSM mapping on an interface.

By default, SSM mapping is disabled on an interface.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

The SSM model allows only IGMPv3 hosts to specify the multicast sources which they want to receive data from. However, some hosts can only run IGMPv1 or IGMPv2. To enable these hosts to use the SSM service, configure IGMP SSM mapping on the switch. IGMP SSM mapping is implemented based on static SSM mapping entries on the switch. The switch converts (*, G) information in IGMPv1 and IGMPv2 Report messages to (S, G) information according to static SSM mapping entries to provide the SSM service for IGMPv1 and IGMPv2 hosts.

The igmp ssm-mapping enable command enables SSM mapping on an interface. The mappings between multicast source addresses and group addresses take effect only when SSM mapping is enabled on an interface. SSM mappings are configured using the ssm-mapping command.

Prerequisites

IP multicast routing has been enabled using the multicast routing-enable command.

Precautions

The SSM mapping function takes effect on an interface only when the interface runs IGMPv3.
