Configuring Multicast Routing and Forwarding
Configuration Prerequisites
Before configuring multicast routing and forwarding, complete the following tasks:
z
Configure a unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain are interoperable at
the network layer.
z
Enable PIM (PIM-DM or PIM-SM).
Before configuring multicast routing and forwarding, prepare the following data:
z
The maximum number of downstream nodes for a single multicast forwarding table entry
z
The maximum number of entries in the multicast forwarding table
Configuring Multicast Static Routes
By configuring a multicast static route for a given multicast source, you can specify an RPF
interface or an RPF neighbor for multicast traffic from that source.
Follow these steps to configure a multicast static route:

Optional
When configuring a multicast static route, you cannot specify an RPF neighbor by providing the
type and number (interface-type interface-number) of the interface connecting the RPF
neighbor if the interface type of the RPF neighbor is Ethernet, Layer 3 aggregate, Loopback,
RPR, or VLAN-interface; instead, you can specify such an RPF neighbor only by its address
(rpf-nbr-address).
