IPMR (PIM) configuration
Hi guys,

I need to create two separate vlans(10 and 20) on omni 6855 for multicast routing.

I tried to configure four 6855 omni switches for multicast routing and so far I got just IPMS working but no luck with IPMR(PIM). I have Layer 2 switch with CCTV camera connected to trunk port of the omni 6855 in the lab.
Here is my configof the omni6855:

I created Interfaces "1/1" and "1/2" for L3 routing and multicast for vlan 10
and
Interfaces "1/9" and "1/10" for L3 routing and multicast for vlan 20

Please, check L3 config because I'm not sure is it correct.

Thank you and best regards

It's my lab topology:

Hello

I'm more used to with PIM-SM. And what is write here is for PIM-SM.
I assume you have ip connectivity end to end between client an multicast server.

You need to configure on one switch, where L3 is active, this :

candidate rendez-vous point (c-rp) and bootstrap router. It is mandatory !! to have both configured, so PIM info message can be exchanged in your Multicast environnment.

Or you can try to user dvmrp, more simple for small network. Enable dvmrp on each routed interface in your L3 switch and it must work
