Huawei quidway s7700 - Configuring an MTI; Checking the Configuration

NOTE
After an MTI is created using the command in this step, the system automatically configures PIM on the
MTI. You do not need to configure PIM on this MTI.
PIM-SM is enabled on an MTI by default. If a physical interface configured with a PIM mode exists in the
same VPN with an MTI, the PIM mode of the MTI will be the same as that of the physical interface.
----End
8.3.5 Configuring an MTI
An MTI can send and receive multicast data only after being enabled with the multicast function.
Context
Do as follows on the PE switch:
Procedure
l
1. Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
2. Run:
interface mtunnel number
The MTI interface view is displayed.
3. Run:
pim sm
or run:
pim dm
PIM is enabled on the MTI.
The PIM mode is the same as the PIM mode of the VPN that the MTI belongs to.
4. Run:
ip address ip-address { mask | mask-length }
The address of the MTI is configured.
NOTE
The MTI address must be the same as the IP address that is used to set up the IBGP peer
relationship on the PE in the public network. Otherwise, the VPN multicast packets received
on the MTI cannot pass the RPF check.
----End
8.3.6 Checking the Configuration
After basic MD VPN functions are configured, you can check information about the share-group
and MTI of a specified VPN instance to ensure normal running of the VPN.
