InterVRF multicast

pppyyyppp · ‎09-18-2008

Can anyone advise if there is support for interVRF multicasting over MPLS VPN network?

We have successfully configured mVPN within a VRF. But cannot seem to get it work across different VRFs - multicast server in red VRF and receivers in green VRF.

Please advise.

Hi,

Has anyone implement MVPN over Inter-VRF (multicasting over different VRFs - multicast server in one VRF and multicast receivers in different VRFs). The FAQ dated 2002 stated that this is not supported. Can someone from Cisco advise if this is a supported feature?

Thanks

It is indeed supported in a few IOS releases including 12.2(33)SXH and 12.2(33)SB.

Hi Ritter,

Do u have any document that show how this can be configured?

Is this support on 7400 and GSR 12400 series routers?

Thanks

What you are looking for is a feature called Multicast VPN Extranet Support. This allows you to leak multicast streams from one VRF to another. This was first integrated in 12.2(31)SB2 and 12.2(33)SXH

Configuration guide can be found at:
