Restrictions for LISP Multicast
The following restrictions apply to the LISP Multicast feature:
• Only IPv4 Multicast LISP is supported over the Unicast core.
• Only Any Source Multicast (ASM) and Single Source Multicast (SSM) modes are supported.
• Only static Rendezvous Point (RP) is supported.

Configuring LISP Multicast

Perform this task to configure a device to support Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP) Multicast functionality.
In this task, a LISP site an edge router configured as an xTR (performs as both an ITR and an ETR) and
includes a single IPv4 connection to an upstream provider. Both the RLOC and the EID are IPv4. Additionally,
this LISP site registers to one map resolver/map server (MR/MS) device in the network core.
• Mapping system:
The steps in this task enable and configure LISP Multicast ITR and ETR (xTR) functionality when using a
LISP map server and map resolver for mapping services.

• One map resolver/map server (MR/MS) system is assumed to be available for the LISP xTR to
configure. The MR/MS have IPv4 RLOC 11.0.0.2.
• Mapping services are assumed to be provided as part of this LISP solution via a private mapping
system or as a public LISP mapping system. From the perspective of the configuration of these
LISP site xTRs, there is no difference.
