Multicast routing

Wed Dec 04, 2013 4:53 pm

Hello, we bought MIKROTIK Cloud Core Router 1016-12G and try to use it for the multicast routing. Here are sources from the service provider:

rp xx.xx.xx.xx
permit 224.2.2.0 0.0.0.255
permit 239.255.12.0 0.0.1.255

rp yy.yy.yy.yy
permit 233.136.41.0 0.0.0.255

rp zz.zz.zz.zz
permit 233.83.164.1
permit 233.115.185.2
permit 239.255.12.42
permit 239.2.3.163
permit 233.97.20.199
permit 226.0.2.16

rp dd.dd.dd.dd
permit 233.99.62.0 0.0.0.255

rp cc.cc.cc.cc
permit 233.97.20.199
permit 233.97.45.4

and so on...
How can we describe that in Mikrotik, using winbox? In the section Routing-->PIM-->RP we can describe only one single group for one RP address. In most cases we need to describe few groups for each RP address. When we used Cisco before, it was possible to make that using acceslists. How it may be done using MT? Thank you. Excuse me for my pure english.

Can you use routing filters for this? For each RP add them in PIM, specify 224.0.0.0/4 for the group, but create a specific routing filter, maybe using chain 'multicast'. I have not tried this before it is a rough idea.

A router with a list of loyal members related to each router interface that distributes the multicast packets.

Thank you for the answers. TonyJr, we have a lot of RP. It is the routing filter similar to Cisco access-list? If so, we'd like to put this filter into the RP-->group. How can we do it?

Fugère, I'm not sure that I understood your idea. Can you explain more detailed?

when you set up RP you can choose what IGMP groups are set for this RP. For 1 IGMP group there can be 1 RP in same multicast network.

Thank you, janisk. We know, that for 1 IGMP group can be set 1 RP in the MT router. But we need to set few IGMP groups for one single RP address. How to do it using MT? Cisco router, we used before, allow that, but we want to use MT router for this purpose. If it is unresolvable, we'll return MT router to the reseller.

I've read manual and found that the routing filter is designed for the routing protocol, if I understood correctly?
