V5808
401
When installed within the Layer 3 network as a router, the V5808 should be configured
with a multicast routing protocol. However, an additional switch performing IGMP
snooping is needed for subscribers in the Layer 2 network. Fig. 9.2 shows an example of
the V5808 with PIM-SM (L3 multicast routing protocol) in the Layer 3 network.
Fig. 9.2 The V5808 with PIM-SM
If more than one port are on the same Layer 2 interface and the V5808 is a border router
of the Layer 3 network, you should configure the V5808 with both IGMP snooping and
PIM-SM together.
Fig. 9.3 shows the example of the multicast network with the switch configured with both
IGMP snooping and PIM-SM.
