multicast output drops

plavine
Level 1
Level 1

I have a SVI running PIM. With 1 sender and 1 receiver on a single muticast group over a the same VLAN, I get no data loss. As soon as I add another receiver (igmp join), I experience data loss and output drops on the all of the receivers ports.

Hello Philip,

may you add some more details like:

platform

IOS image

config of your SVI

sh ip igmp groups

sh ip igmp snooping vlan SVI#

sh ip igmp snooping groups

sh ip igmp snooping querier

this can help to understand what is happening.

Hope to help

Giuseppe

Hello Philip,

sorry for the late answer

I don't see anything wrong in the shows you have provided.

I tried to do a bug search for your switch and IOS image

the search of bugs related to multicast provides 170 entries.

Hope to help

Giuseppe

If the switch is running the following modules:

WS-X4548-GB-RJ45

and if there are 2 receiver hosts on the same ASIC(I am assuming ports 1-8) would there be an issue if the sender was sending multicast at nearly gigbit speed (on a different blade), would the switch drop data since it would be bound by the 1 gigabit shared between the 8 ports on the receiver's ASIC

Hello Philip,

you have hit the ball!

this limitation exists in this linecard and we have seen it with unicast traffic.

I cannot find the document now, but I've seen the same with unicast traffic in our network during new servers testings.

1 Gbps multicast traffic ? are you using a traffic generator?

Hope to help

Giuseppe

Yes I am using atraffic generator - mtools it is able to generate linespeed traffic @ the sender
