Configuring Multicast Services

After a dot1q or QinQ VLAN tag termination sub-interface is configured, configure multicast services for the sub-interface so user hosts of this sub-interface can communicate with multicast sources.

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run interfaceinterface-type interface-number.subinterface-number

    The dot1q or QinQ VLAN tag termination sub-interface view is displayed.

  3. Perform the actions described in Table 1 to configure the multicast service for the dot1q or QinQ VLAN tag termination sub-interface.

    Table 1 Configuring the multicast service for a dot1q or QinQ VLAN tag termination sub-interface

    Action

    Remarks

    Layer 2 multicast

    Run igmp-snooping static-router-portvsivsi-name

    The dot1q or QinQ VLAN tag termination sub-interface is configured as a static router interface for a virtual switching instance (VSI).

    The VSI specified in the command must have been bound to the dot1q or QinQ VLAN tag termination.

    Configure the dot1q or QinQ VLAN tag termination sub-interface as a static multicast member interface for a VSI:
    • In the dot1q VLAN tag termination sub-interface view, run the l2-multicast static-group [ source-address source-address-ip-address ] group-address group-address dot1q vid vid vsi vsi-name command.

    • In the QinQ VLAN tag termination sub-interface view, run the l2-multicast static-group [ source-address source-address-ip-address ] group-address group-address qinq pe-vid pe-vid ce-vid ce-id vsi vsi-name command.

    The VSI specified in the command must have been bound to the dot1q or QinQ VLAN tag termination.

    Run igmp-snooping group-policy { acl-number | acl-nameacl-name } [ versionnumber ] { qinqpe-vidpe-vidce-vidce-id1 [ toce-id2 ] | dot1qvidvid1 [ tovid2 ] }

    The range of multicast groups that hosts can join is configured.

    Layer 3 multicast

    Run igmp static-groupStaticGrp [ inc-step-mask { IncStepGrpMask | IncStepGrpMaskLen } numberTotalNum ] [ sourceSourceAddr ] { qinq pe-vid peVidValue ce-vid lowCeValue [ to highCeValue ] | dot1qvid lowVidValue [ tohighVidValue] }

    The dot1q or QinQ VLAN tag termination sub-interface is added to a specific multicast group or multiple multicast groups in batches.

    The static group with tag parameters can be configured only on the QinQ VLAN tag termination sub-interface or the dot1q VLAN tag termination sub-interface.

  4. Run commit

    The configuration is committed.
