Problems with Ghost(Multicast)
I am very new to the switch stuff - so i feel kind of dumb asking this... But I just put in new switches at the school and I am having problems Ghosting machines over the network - we 3448 switches all over the place - im guessing that some of the switches aren't configured correctly and have storm control or whatever enabled. Like i said, im fairly new to this so any help would really be appreciated...

Not sure how to help you, but I'll try :-). For debugging purposes, try to isolate your system down to a single switch and two PCs. Just setup the single 3448 and one PC with the ghost server and one PC with the ghost client. Now see if you can get it to work with just this config. Send me the config so I can see what you are doing. I'll try to help you if I can. If you have a large network and cannot setup a small experimental network as described, it may be very difficult to figure out what's wrong without drawing out the entire network and looking at the configuration on everything.

Hi,
Because GHOST working through the mulicast, you need to configure multicast support.
To do so under the privilage mode type:
ip igmp snooping
bridge multicast filtering
Under each vlan configuration mode type:

we have 2 - 6024f switches in the school.... is there something that needs to be changed on these or is the only setting that needs to be changed on the 3448 switches??
i know there are some 3348 switches in the school that multicast actually works on - so i just need to change the setting to match i assume
