Hi, Have been experimenting with bridged networking in order
to connect VMs located on separate physical machines. Unicast communication
works fine but multicast traffic in not being forwarded beyond the bridge. Looking
at the code am reaching the conclusion that bridge treats multicast traffic in
same way as broadcast, so why the multicast traffic is not flowing beyond the
bridge. Also does kernel tunable like mc_forwarding have any significance in
this matter? On the later version of linux 2.6.18 and after am finding this
tunable as read-only (and set to 0). The kernel being used has CONFIG_IP_MROUTE
enabled but its not running mrouted. Regards Animesh |
