| Hi.
I wonder if someone can do me a big favour.
I know very little about multicast. Pim and Dence mode and whatever. I currently have 10 routers in our lab and shall try to learn more about it.
I need some kind of multicast source and multicast client.
Does anyone know a URL or something where i can download that?
I would really appreciate an answer.
I have looked around my self but i have not find any usefull. (perhaps becouse lack of knowledge???)
Thanks!! | |

| Doesn't Norton Ghost use multicasting when sending images to PC clients.
IP TV maybe another. They showed us that on the Switching course.
Don't know any free stuff unfortunately. | |

| When I was setting up multicast stuff, I would just ping the multicast address to make sure it was working.
It looks like you could try this, though:

| I was thinking of running a private multicast lab until I ran out of time...
If you want to have multicast groups for learning purposes, I think you can source an IGMP Membership Report (Join) on a router through this command:
(config-if) ip igmp join-group group_address
I think this will create an active (*, G) entry on all multicast-enabled routers. The rest of the lab config depends on what you're running.
I haven't had the time to try this out, let me know if this works!!
