Configuring a static multicast route

The distance parameter sets the administrative distance. This parameter is used by the software to
determine the best path for the route. Thus, to ensure that the Brocade uses the default static
route, assign a low administrative distance value. When comparing multiple paths for a route, the
Brocade prefers the path with the lower administrative distance.

Configuring a static multicast route within a VRF

The Multi-Service IronWare software allows you to configure a static multicast route within a virtual
routing instance (VRF). The static multicast route is defined within the VRF configuration as shown
in the following.

Brocade(config)# vrf vpn1

Brocade(config-vrf-vpn1)#address family ipv4

Brocade(config-vrf-vpn1)# ip mroute 105.105.105.0/24 14.14.14.105

Syntax: [no] vrf vrf-name

Syntax: [no] ip mroute ip-addr

The vrf parameter specifies the virtual routing instance (VRF) specified by the variable vrf-name.

The ip-addr parameter specifies the destination IP address.

NOTE

Configuring a static multicast route for the default VRF is still accomplished using the command
described in

“Configuring a static multicast route”

.
