This design is based on sparse mode multicast operation.

Step 1: Configure IP Multicast routing on the platforms in the global configuration mode.

ip multicast-routing

Cisco Catalyst 3750 Series Switches instead require the ip multicast-routing distributed command.

Step 2: Configure the switch to discover the IP Multicast RP.

Every Layer 3 switch and router is configured to discover the IP Multicast RP with AutoRP in this design—other

alternatives are not covered. Use the ip pim autorp listener command to allow for discovery across sparse mode

links. This configuration provides for future scaling and control of the IP Multicast environment and can change

based on network needs and design.

Step 3: Configure ip pim sparse-mode. All Layer 3 interfaces in the network should be enabled for sparse mode

multicast operation.
