Is multicast supported on the ASA5510 for IPSec VPN CLients

Hello,

Our customer is using multicast in their internal network for their IP video deployemnt. Internallt on the network everything is working great.

We have two folks in management who want to be able to view the live multicast video feeds of the cameras remotely. I have tried to accomplish this using the Cisco VPN client. Although VPN connectivity is good (we can ping the individual cameras) they are unable to view the live multicast feeds. I enabled multicast globally on the ASA and the inside interface and get the same results.

Is there a way for the ASA to support the remote IPSec VPN client to view the multicast strams?

Thank you for any help.

No. IPSec VPN only support unicast traffic. If you need multicast then you would have to do GRE tunnel from an inisde RTR to the remote RTR and encrypt the GRE tunnel on the ASA.
