Configuring DNS-Based SSM Mapping (CLI)
To configure DNS-based SSM mapping, you need to create a DNS server zone or add records to an existing
zone. If the routers that are using DNS-based SSM mapping are also using DNS for other purposes, you should
use a normally configured DNS server. If DNS-based SSM mapping is the only DNS implementation being
used on the router, you can configure a false DNS setup with an empty root zone or a root zone that points
back to itself.
SUMMARY STEPS

4.
ip igmp ssm-map query dns
5.
ip domain multicast domain-prefix
6.
ip name-server server-address1
[
server-address2
...
server-address6
]
7.
Repeat Step 5 to configure additional DNS servers for redundancy, if required.

DETAILED STEPS
Purpose
Command or Action
Enables privileged EXEC mode.
enable
Step 1
Example:
Device>
enable
•
Enter your password if prompted.
Enters the global configuration mode.
configure terminal
Example:
Device#
configure terminal
Step 2
Enables SSM mapping for groups in a configured SSM
range.
ip igmp ssm-map enable
Example:
Device(config)#
ip igmp ssm-map
Step 3
enable
(Optional) Enables DNS-based SSM mapping.
ip igmp ssm-map query dns
Step 4
Example:
Device(config)#
ip igmp ssm-map
By default, the
ip igmp ssm-map
command enables
DNS-based SSM mapping. Only the
no
form of this
command is saved to the running configuration.
