Configuring Static RPs

If you have static rendezvous points (RPs) configured, you must configure CMM to find these static RPs, which in turn populates the RP Summary within the Multicast Manager tool Diagnostics section.

To configure static RPs:

---

Step 1 From the Multicast Manager menu, select Configuration Management.

Step 2 Select Device Configuration.

Step 3 Select Configure Static RPs.

Step 4 In the Add Static RP Search field, enter the IP address of the RP. The Search field is address sensitive, so as you type in the IP address, a list of routers appear.

Step 5 Click Add next to the router(s) you want to select. The Static RPs table is populated.

Configuring SSM Devices

The CMM currently supplies you with a list of all active sources and groups when requested. In a network containing RPs, the CMM visits each RP and collates a list to provide this information when requested. This is not possible in a Source Specific Multicast (SSM) network that does not contain RPs. To provide you with a list of all active sources and groups in SSM networks, you can input routers to the CMM that it visits when asked for this information. You can decide which routers are considered RP-type devices that contain most of the active sources and groups in the network, and then specify those routers. When you request to Show All Groups, the CMM visits the specified routers and builds the list from them.

To configure SSM devices:

---

Step 1 From the Multicast Manager menu, select Configuration Management.

Step 2 Select Device Configuration.

Step 3 Select Configure SSM Devices.

Step 4 Within the Add Source Specific Multicast Device Search field, enter the IP address of the RP. The Search field is address sensitive, so as you type in the IP address, a list of routers appear.

Step 5 Click Add next to the router(s) that you want to select. The Source Specific Multicast Devices table is populated.

---

Step 1 From the Multicast Manager menu, select Configuration Management.

Step 2 Select MVPN Configuration.
