-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Thanks, Brent. I checked out the Internet2 website (http://www.internet2.org) but couldn't find the NOC webpage with the "multicast cookbook" that you mention. Do you have a URL? I search and found A LOT of references, but nothing quite like you described. Thanks. === Tim ********************************************** Tim Winders, MCSE, CNE, CCNA Associate Dean of Information Technology South Plains College Levelland, TX 79336 Phone: 806-894-9611 x 2369 FAX: 806-894-1549 Email: TWinders@SPC.cc.tx.us ********************************************** On Tue, 27 Mar 2001, Brent Sweeny wrote:
I agree that the education and understanding are hard to find. It's not entirely intuitive, esp to troubleshoot (in my opinion). However, there are a number of decent resources around. The Abilene (Internet2) network's NOC webpage has a list of useful resources and a "multicast cookbook" intended to show how to configure and verify your edge router with native multicast (for Cisco IOS; sorry, others). perhaps that'll help.

I'm curious what barriers are keeping multicast from being deployed at the edges. Does your upstream not support multicast connectivity, or is it an education issue in getting connected?
In my case... lack of understand/education. I have been reading as much as I can about multicasting, but I have yet to find a simple FAQ/HOW-TO guide on enabling my internal network for multicast. I have a mixture of Nortel and Cisco routers and switches. All the manuals TALK about multicast, but I haven't found a simple setup guide.
I figure, there is no point in multicast enabling my edge/internet router if the rest of my network isn't multicast aware...
Any thoughts? I just joined the multicast mailing list mentioned here earlier to hopefully learn more about the subject...
