Configuring Static Traffic Forwarding with SSM Mapping
Use static traffic forwarding with SSM mapping to statically forward SSM traffic for certain groups.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure static traffic forwarding with SSM
mapping:
Step 3
ip igmp ssm-map query dns
(Optional) Enable DNS-based SSM mapping.
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.
Note
Use this command to re-enable DNS-based SSM mapping if
DNS-based SSM mapping is disabled.
Step 4
ip domain multicast
domain-prefix
(Optional) Change the domain prefix used by the switch for DNS-based
SSM mapping.
By default, the switch uses the
ip-addr.arpa
domain prefix.
Step 5
ip name-server
server-address1
[
server-address2... server-address6
]
Specify the address of one or more name servers to use for name and
address resolution.
Step 6
Repeat Step 5 to configure additional
DNS servers for redundancy, if required.

Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 8
show running-config
Verify your entries.
Step 9
copy running-config startup-config
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.

Step 1
configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
interface
type number
Select an interface on which to statically forward traffic for a multicast
group using SSM mapping, and enter interface configuration mode.
Note
Static forwarding of traffic with SSM mapping works with
either DNS-based SSM mapping or statically configured SSM
mapping.
Step 3
ip igmp static-group
group-address
source ssm-map
Configure SSM mapping to statically forward a (S, G) channel from the
interface.
Use this command if you want to statically forward SSM traffic for
certain groups. Use DNS-based SSM mapping to determine the source
addresses of the channels.
Step 4
show running-config
Verify your entries.
Step 5
copy running-config startup-config
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
