mrm - "Monitor source address is not configured"?

dave

Greetings,

I'm trying to use MRM, but the "manager" doesn't seem to know it's source address, despite looking like it does.

I've tried multiple source interfaces.

-----------------------------------------ip mrm manager TEST

manager Serial0/0.1 group 225.0.0.1

senders 1

receivers 2

-----------------------------------------

R3#sh ip mrm manager TEST

Manager:TEST/1.0.0.1 is not running

Beacon interval/holdtime/ttl:60/86400/32

Group:225.0.0.1, UDP port test-packet/status-report:16384/65535

Test senders:

5.5.5.5

Test receivers:

1.1.1.1

-----------------------------------------

R3#mrm TEST start

Monitor source address is not configured

-----------------------------------------

???!!!! Another interface (loopback)

-----------------------------------------

R3#sh ip mrm manager TEST

Manager:TEST/3.3.3.3 is not running

Beacon interval/holdtime/ttl:5/86400/32

Group:239.0.0.1, UDP port test-packet/status-report:50000/50001

Test senders:

5.5.5.5

Test receivers:

1.1.1.1

R3#mrm TEST start

Monitor source address is not configured

-----------------------------------------

I've tried this on various 3640s running enterprise 12.3, and a 2500 running 12.2(32). All have the same result.

You have missed this command, I believe.

"R1(config-mrm-manager)# receivers 2 sender-list 1"

Although the Cisco IOS CLI parser accepts the command entered without the sender-list access-list keyword-argument pair, this keyword-argument pair is not optional. For an MRM test to work, you must specify the sources that the Test Receiver should monitor using the sender-list keyword and access-list argument.

This should solve the problem.
