Address Criteria
•
The VPI of a multicast connection indicates the multicast group to which it belong.
•
The VPI.VCI assigned to a multicast connection is unique for that card.
•
If the VCI = 0 for a multicast connection, this indicates a root connection.
•
If the VCI is not = 0 for a multicast connection, this indicates a leaf connection.
•
If the root connection of a given multicast group is added to port 1 of the two port card, then the
leaves belonging to that multicast group must be added to port 2, and vice versa.
For example, if 12.1.50.0 is added on port 1, then the leaves should be:
12.2.50.50
12.2.50.100
12.2.50.101 and so on.
Similarly, if a root 12.2.60.0 is added on port 2, then the leaves should be
12.1.60.101
12.1.60.175, and so on.
