Configuring a Multicast-Capable ATM1 or ATM2 IQ Connection
For ATM1 and ATM2 IQ interfaces, you can configure a multicast-capable connection. By default, ATM connections assume unicast traffic. If your ATM switch performs multicast replication, you can configure the connection to support multicast traffic by including the multicast-vci statement:
multicast-vci vpi-identifier.vci-identifier;
You can include this statement at the following hierarchy levels:
- [edit interfaces interface-name unit logical-unit-number]
- [edit logical-systems logical-system-name interfaces interface-name unit logical-unit-number]
vci-identifier and vpi-identifier are the VCI and VPI identifiers, which define the ATM VCI over which the switch is expecting to receive multicast packets for replication.
You can configure multicast support only on point-to-multipoint ATM connections.
