Verifying IP Multicast Layer 3 Hardware Switching Summary
Note
The show interface statistics command does not verify hardware-switched packets, only packets
switched by software.
The show ip pim interface count command verifies the IP multicast Layer 3 switching enable state on
IP PIM interfaces and the number of packets received and sent on the interface.
Use the following show commands to verify IP multicast Layer 3 switching information for an IP PIM
Layer 3 interface:
Step 1
Router#
show ip pim interface count
State:* - Fast Switched, D - Distributed Fast Switched
H - Hardware Switching Enabled
Address Interface FS Mpackets In/Out
10.15.1.20 GigabitEthernet4/8 * H 952/4237130770
10.20.1.7 GigabitEthernet4/9 * H 1385673757/34
10.25.1.7 GigabitEthernet4/10* H 0/34
10.11.1.30 FastEthernet6/26 * H 0/0
10.37.1.1 FastEthernet6/37 * H 0/0
1.22.33.44 FastEthernet6/47 * H 514/68
Step 2
Router#
show ip mroute count
IP Multicast Statistics
56 routes using 28552 bytes of memory
13 groups, 3.30 average sources per group
Forwarding Counts:Pkt Count/Pkts per second/Avg Pkt Size/Kilobits per second
Other counts:Total/RPF failed/Other drops(OIF-null, rate-limit etc)
Group:224.2.136.89, Source count:1, Group pkt count:29051
Source:132.206.72.28/32, Forwarding:29051/-278/1186/0, Other:85724/8/56665
Router#
Note
The negative counter means that the outgoing interface list of the corresponding entry is NULL, and this
indicates that this flow is still active.
Step 3
Router#
show ip interface vlan 10
Vlan10 is up, line protocol is up
Internet address is 10.0.0.6/8
Broadcast address is 255.255.255.255
Address determined by non-volatile memory
MTU is 1500 bytes
Helper address is not set
Directed broadcast forwarding is disabled
Multicast reserved groups joined: 224.0.0.1 224.0.0.2 224.0.0.13 224.0.0.10
Outgoing access list is not set
Inbound access list is not set
Proxy ARP is enabled
Security level is default
Split horizon is enabled
ICMP redirects are always sent
ICMP unreachables are never sent
ICMP mask replies are never sent
IP fast switching is enabled
