multicast-list (AAA view)

Function

The multicast-list command configures the multicast list.

The undo multicast-list command cancels the configured multicast list.

By default, no multicast program list is configured in the AAA view.

This command is supported only on the NetEngine 8000 F1A.

Format

multicast-list list-name [ index list-index ] [ source-address source-address [ source-mask-len | source-mask ] ] group-address group-address [ group-mask-length | group-mask ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Value
list-name	Specifies the name of a multicast list.	The value is a string of 1 to 32 characters.
index list-index	Specifies the index of a multicast list.	The value is an integer that ranges from 0 to 8191.
source-address source-address	Specifies the multicast source address, expressed in dotted decimal notation.	The value is in dotted decimal notation.
source-mask-len	Specifies the length of the mask of the multicast source IP address.	The value is an integer that ranges from 0 to 32.
source-mask	Specifies the mask of the multicast source IP address.	The value is in dotted decimal notation.
group-address group-address	Specifies the multicast group IP address, expressed in dotted decimal notation.	The value is in dotted decimal notation.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

You can configure multiple multicast programs with parameter group-mask or group-mask-length. If the parameter group-mask or group-mask-length is not selected, the default value of group-mask is 255.255.255.255,that is, the value of group-mask-length is 32,indicating that only one multicast program is configured.

For example, the address of a multicast program list is 239.1.1.4 and the value of group-mask-length is 30. The multicast program list contains four program addresses, namely, 239.1.1.4, 239.1.1.5,

239.1.1.6, and 239.1.1.7. The four addresses can be considered as four IPTV channels or programs.

Precautions

After a configured multicast list is deleted, it does not take effect for subsequent users that go online after the command is run, but online users are not affected.

An IPv4 multicast program list cannot be modified or deleted after being bound to an IPv4 multicast profile.

Example

# Create a multicast list named list 120.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[~HUAWEI] aaa
[~HUAWEI-aaa] multicast-list l20 group-address 239.0.0.2
