Multicast Snooping Configuration Guidelines

[Contents] [Prev] [Next] [Index] [Report an Error]

To configure the general multicast snooping parameters for MX-series routers, include the multicast-snooping-options statement:




multicast-snooping-options {

flood-groups [ ip-addresses ];



forwarding-cache {

threshold suppress value <reuse value>;
}



graceful-restart <restart-duration seconds>;
}

You can include this statement at the following hierarchy levels:

[edit bridge-domains bridge-domain-name]
[edit routing-instances routing-instance-name bridge-domains bridge-domain-name]

By default, multicast snooping is disabled. You can enable multicast snooping in VPLS or virtual switch instance types. For more information about snooping parameters for IGMP, see IGMP Snooping Configuration Guidelines.

This chapter describes the following tasks for configuring multicast snooping:

Configuring Forwarding Cache Snooping Options
Configuring Flood Groups for Snooping
Configuring Graceful Restart for Snooping
