721.1 | RouteAbout has 4 Multicast Routing Protocols ! | MARVIN::HART | Tony Hart, InterNetworking Prod. Eng. Group | Fri Jan 31 1997 12:46 | 15 |
| RouteAbout V2.0 supports...
MOSPF
DVMRP (version V1.0)
PIM Dense Mode
PIM Sparse Mode
IGMP V1
DECNIS supports...
PIM Dense Mode
IGMP V1
Note that since the PIM protocol is still evolving, you are unlikely to have
verndor interoperability so if you need interoperability use MOSPF or DVMRP.

721.2 | Multicast forwarding rate is limited | MARVIN::SHAND | Mike Shand | Mon Feb 03 1997 08:33 | 5 |
| I'm a little concerned by the mention of "video multicast". Don't expect
particularly good performance, especially on DECNIS, where it is all done by the
MPC).

721.3 | how about VN with routing for this | NETRIX::"[email protected]" | eric gan | Tue Mar 11 1997 06:10 | 9 |
| Hi,
How about VN products with V2 routing software to do video multicast?
Maybe the performance is better than DECNIS or same with it?
thanks in advance,
eric

721.4 | post VNS-V2 release | MARVIN::HART | Tony Hart, InterNetworking Prod. Eng. Group | Tue Mar 11 1997 08:19 | 7 |
| IP multicast on the VNSwitch is scheduled for a release after VNS-V2. The
performance should be much better than either DECNIS or RouteAbout/DECswitch,
the aim is to do the forwarding in the VNS fast-path processor.
VNS V2 won't support IP multicast routing.

721.5 | patch? | NETRIX::"eric gan@bejvc" | ericgan | Wed Mar 12 1997 08:38 | 6 |
| Oho, bad news!
But can I get a patch for IP multicast in V2? Since the customer has
the additional request!

721.6 | There is no patch | MARVIN::HART | Tony Hart, InterNetworking Prod. Eng. Group | Wed Mar 12 1997 09:27 | 4 |
| There isn't a patch for IP multicast. Unfortunately you will have to wait for
vns-V3 or later. Until then only DECswitch, RouteAbout and DECNIS support
IP multicast routing.

Alice Hassey is the Product Manager for VNSwitch, she should be able to answer
your question.
