PIM-Sparse Mode Configuration Example

The following sample configuration shows how to configure the PIM Sparse mode designated router functionality on the VLT domain with two VLT port-channels that are members of VLAN 4001.

For more information, refer to PIM-Sparse Mode Support on VLT .

Example of Configuring PIM-Sparse Mode

Enable PIM Multicast Routing on the VLT node globally. 

VLT_Peer1(conf)#ip multicast-routing

Enable PIM on the VLT port VLANs. 

VLT_Peer1(conf)#interface vlan 4001
                                 VLT_Peer1(conf-if-vl-4001)#ip address 140.0.0.1/24
                                 VLT_Peer1(conf-if-vl-4001)#ip pim sparse-mode
                                 VLT_Peer1(conf-if-vl-4001)#tagged port-channel 101
                                 VLT_Peer1(conf-if-vl-4001)#tagged port-channel 102
                                 VLT_Peer1(conf-if-vl-4001)#no shutdown
                                 VLT_Peer1(conf-if-vl-4001)#exit

Configure the VLTi port as a static multicast router port for the VLAN. 

VLT_Peer1(conf)#interface vlan 4001
                                 VLT_Peer1(conf-if-vl-4001)#ip igmp snooping mrouter interface port-channel 128
                                 VLT_Peer1(conf-if-vl-4001)#exit
                                 VLT_Peer1(conf)#end

Repeat these steps on VLT Peer Node 2. 

VLT_Peer2(conf)#ip multicast-routing
                                 
                                 VLT_Peer2(conf)#interface vlan 4001
                                 VLT_Peer2(conf-if-vl-4001)#ip address 140.0.0.2/24
                                 VLT_Peer2(conf-if-vl-4001)#ip pim sparse-mode
                                 VLT_Peer2(conf-if-vl-4001)#tagged port-channel 101
                                 VLT_Peer2(conf-if-vl-4001)#tagged port-channel 102
                                 VLT_Peer2(conf-if-vl-4001)#no shutdown
                                 
                                 VLT_Peer2(conf-if-vl-4001)#ip igmp snooping mrouter interface port-channel 128
                                 VLT_Peer2(conf-if-vl-4001)#exit
                                 VLT_Peer2(conf)#end
