Configuring multicast load splitting
You can enable the device to split multiple data flows on a per-source basis or on a
per-source-and-group basis. This optimizes the traffic delivery.
To configure multicast load splitting:
Step
Command
Remarks
1.
Enter system view.
system-view
N/A
2.
Enter MRIB view.
multicast routing
[
vpn-instance
vpn-instance-nam
e
]
N/A
3.
Configure multicast load
splitting.
load-splitting
{
source
|
source-group
}
By default, multicast load splitting
is disabled.
This command does not take
effect on BIDIR-PIM.
Configuring a multicast forwarding boundary
You can configure an interface as a multicast forwarding boundary for a multicast group range. The
interface cannot receive or forward multicast packets for the group range.
TIP:
You do not need to enable IP multicast routing before this configuration.
To configure a multicast forwarding boundary:
Step

By default, an interface is not a
multicast forwarding boundary.
Enabling multicast forwarding between
sub-VLANs of a super VLAN
A super VLAN is associated with multiple sub-VLANs. Sub-VLANs are isolated with each other at
Layer 2. For information about the super VLAN and sub-VLANs, see
Layer 2—LAN Switching
Configuration Guide
.
To enable multicast forwarding between sub-VLANs that are associated with a super VLAN:
