l2-multicast static-group (VSI view)

Function

The l2-multicast static-group command configures a static member interface.

The undo l2-multicast static-group command cancels the configuration.

By default, a dynamic member interface is used.

Format

l2-multicast static-group [ source-address source-address ] group-address group-address remote-peer ip-address [ negotiation-vc-id vc-id ]

undo l2-multicast static-group [ source-address source-address ] group-address { group-address | all } remote-peer ip-address [ negotiation-vc-id vc-id ]

Parameters

Parameter Description Value
source-address source-address

Specifies a multicast source address.

The·value·can·be·a·Class·A,·Class·B,·or·Class·C·address,·in·dotted·decimal·notation.

group-address group-address

Specifies a multicast group address.

The value ranges from 224.0.1.0 to 239.255.255.255, in dotted decimal notation.

remote-peer ip-address

Specifies the IP address of a remote peer.

The·value·can·be·a·Class·A,·Class·B,·or·Class·C·address,·in·dotted·decimal·notation.

negotiation-vc-id vc-id

negotiation-vc-id vc-id and remote-peer ip-address work together to identify a PW. By default, vc-id is the VSI ID.

The value is an integer ranging from 1 to 4294967295.

all

Indicates all VLAN/sVSIs/BDs multicast groups.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

If hosts connected to an interface need to regularly receive data for a multicast group or a source-specific multicast group, the l2-multicast static-group command can be used to configure the interface as a static member interface.

Static member interfaces can be configured on different positions on a network to enable users to receive data for specific multicast groups or source-specific multicast groups regularly. The commands listed in the following table can be run in any order. Run one or more commands as required to configure static member interfaces. For details, see Table 1.

Prerequisites

IGMP snooping has been configured globally and in a VLAN/VSI/BD.

Configuration Impact

A static member interface does not respond to IGMP Query messages. After the undo l2-multicast static-group command is run on a static member interface, the interface does not initiate an IGMP Leave message.

If the l2-multicast static-group command is run more than once, all configurations take effect.

Precautions

If the number of (S, G) entries relevant to a group has reached the maximum value (128), no static entry will be created after the l2-multicast static-group command is run. This means that no entry relevant to a static multicast group will be generated even after the reset igmp-snooping group all command is run in the system view to refresh entries.

Example

# When LDP is used as a signaling negotiation protocol, configure a PW interface as a static member interface and configure the static member interface to join multicast group 225.1.1.2 in a VSI named vsi0.
