DLNA Media Server is not showing on diffrent Vlans

[Zohaib Khan]

Hi all,

i have a media Server in one Vlan now i want to access it from other Vlans as well. for DLNA i configure Multicast and PIM Spare mode with rp address on Cisco 4500x L3 switch and enable IGMP snooping on all my Layer 2 switches but still not able to show my DLNA in other Vlans

DLNA in Vlan2

want to show in it in Vlan3 and Vlan4

here is my L3 Switch configuration foe PIM

ip routing

ip multicast-routing

int vlan 2

ip add 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0

ip pim sparse-mode

int vlan 3

ip add 192.168.3.1 255.255.255.0

ip pim sparse-mode

int vlan 4

ip add 192.168.4.1 255.255.255.0

ip pim sparse-mode

ip pim rp-address 192.168.2.1

Have you checked the TTL setting on the DNLA server ?

[Zohaib Khan]

yea 2

[Jon Marshall]

Can you post "sh ip mroute "

Still Searching for Solution

[Jon Marshall]

My apologies, i missed your last reply.

Can you do a quick test and change to dense mode ie.

switch(config)' int vlan 2

switch(config-if)# no ip pim sparse-mode

switch(config-if)# ip pim dense-mode

for each vlan and see what happens.

Jon

[Zohaib Khan]

jon thanks for the response I changed PIM mode already i am using spare-dense-mode on every vlan

like:

switch(config)' int vlan 2

switch(config-if)# ip pim sparse-dense-mode

But still not working for me

[Jon Marshall]

Did you remove the RP config when you ran sparse-dense-mode ? If not, can you and try again.

Other than that can you describe your toppology, is it just a L3 switch with L2 switches connected via trunks ?

Jon

[Zohaib Khan]

Jon i am sorry for late reply yea it just L3 switch with L2 switches and Lightweight Access point Multicast snooping and broadcast farwording is enabled  at Wireless Controller .

And i didnt remove RP .

What is pim-dvmrp ...Multicast listening mode

[Elia]

Hello,

I'm facing the same issue but still haven't found the solution.

I've a home NAS in the 172.32.0.x/24 network, and my samsung smart TV in the 192.168.88.x/24 Network. I can ping the TV from the nas, but the tv can't see the NAS as media source. If i move the NAS to the 192.168.88.x/24 network, the tv correctly see the nas. I've removed all the protections from the smart TV, still can't see the NAS. This is the relevant configuration part:

Hello

On the l2 access switches try:

conf t
ip igmp snooping
ip igmp snooping vlan xxx

On l3 switch
ip pim autorp listener

[Elia]

Hey, thanks for the help, unfortunately it still doesn't work. My router is a Cisco 887VA Version 15.7(3)M3.

I've also tried what @Deepak Kumar suggested, but still the TV can see my router and AP via DLNA (which are in the same vlan) but not the NAS.

This is the output of the previous commands, after i inserted what you told me: (
conf t
ip igmp snooping
ip igmp snooping vlan 10
ip igmp snooping vlan 20

ip pim autorp listener (i tried with only this, but it didn't work out, so tried only the L2 commands, and it didn't work out, so i tried to insert all)

pim rp-address 192.168.88.1 (which is the Cisco 887 used for gateway of both the SVIs)

The TV is on ip 192.168.88.11, and it shows something in the mroute table:

Hi,

I suggested to change "ip pim rp-address 192.168.2.1"  to "IP pimrp-address <Server IP address>". and try it.
