Displaying IP-multicast activity
To display the number of IGMP packet types sent and received, enter the Show IGMP Stats
command. For example:
ascend% show igmp stats
46 packets received.
0 bad checksum packets received.
0 bad version packets received.
0 query packets received.
46 response packets received.
0 leave packets received.
51 packets transmitted.
47 query packets sent.
4 response packets sent.
0 leave packets sent.
To display the number of multicast packets received and forwarded, enter the Show Mrouting
Stats commands. For example:
ascend% show mrouting stats
34988 packets received.
57040 packets forwarded.
0 packets in error.
91 packets dropped.
0 packets transmitted.
In many cases, the number of packets forwarded is greater than the number of packets
received, because packets can be duplicated and forwarded across multiple links.
Using VRouter-related terminal-server commands
To support multiple virtual routers, the servers and clients you specify in the Multicast profile
must be accessible to the main VRouter (virtual router).
The following terminal-server commands support virtual routing. If you do not specify a
VRouter name on the command line, the MAX unit applies the command to global VRouter
settings. If you specify a VRouter name, the unit applies the command to the specified
VRouter. Table 7-7 describes the usage of terminal-server CLI commands that support
VRouter arguments.
