Layer 3 Switch ICX 7150 : PIM configuration

mohamed_el_harr — Thu, 21 Nov 2019 12:31:30 GMT

Hi,
I used to configure router PIM on HP switches to route multicast between VLANs, I need to know how can i do that on Ruckus switches?
DTV ( channels streamer) on VLAN 120
Clients on VLAN 8

My Config on HP switch is as fallow
ip multicast-routing
router pim
enable
rp-address 192.168.15.253 224.0.0.0 240.0.0.0
exit

vlan 8
ip pim-sparse
ip-addr any
exit
exit

vlan 120
ip pim-sparse
ip-addr any
exit
exit

vlan 8
untagged 5,7
ip address 192.168.15.253 255.255.248.0
tagged 15-24
ip igmp
exit

vlan 120
name "DTVNET"
untagged 13-14
ip address 192.168.120.254 255.255.255.0
ip igmp
exit

Good Morning. Yeah, that looks like a ProCurve configuration... haven't done one of those in 9 years, but...

You should be able to do pim on quite a few Ruckus ICX devices. It should work on the 7150 provided you do NOT have the 8 port unit, and provided you have the licence per:
https://webresources.ruckuswireless.com/pdf/datasheets/ds-icx-7150.pdf

To enable the feature in global configureation
router pim

The same command the HP uses can also be added to an interface:
ip pim-sparse

Often the difference is that the interface name will be something like interface ve 8 on the Ruckus device; since, that is the SVI or VRI.

Here is the article you want to read:

Hi Mohamed,

In addition to the above, PIM is a l3-prem feature and needs to have license activated on the switch, refer the below link.

Thanks
