Operation Manual – IPv4 Routing H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 3 OSPF Configuration 3.4 Configuring OSPF Area Parameters Splitting an OSPF AS into multiple areas reduces the number of LSAs in the networks and extends the OSPF application. For those non-backbone areas residing on the AS boundary, you can configure them as stub areas to further reduce the size of routing tables on routers in these areas and the number of LSAs.

A group of ISs exchange routing information with the same routing protocol in a routing domain. Area. An area is a division unit in a routing domain. The IS-IS protocol allows a routing domain to be divided into multiple areas.
Page 360
Operation Manual – IPv4 Routing H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 4 IS-IS Configuration Generally, a router only needs one area address, and all nodes in the same routing domain must share the same area address. However, a router can have three area addresses at most to support smooth area merging, partitioning and switching.
Operation Manual – IPv4 Routing H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 4 IS-IS Configuration 4.1.2 IS-IS Area I. Two-level hierarchy IS-IS uses two-level hierarchy in the routing domain to support large scale routing networks. A large routing domain is divided into multiple Areas. The Level-1 router is in charge of forwarding routes within an area, and the Level-2 router is in charge of forwarding routes between areas.

Operation Manual – Multicast H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 2 IGMP Snooping Configuration 2.4.4 Configuring Simulated Joining Generally, a host running IGMP responds to IGMP queries from the IGMP querier. If a host fails to respond due to some reasons, the multicast router may deem that no member of this multicast group exists on the network segment, and therefore will remove the corresponding forwarding path.
Operation Manual – Multicast H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 2 IGMP Snooping Configuration 2.4.5 Configuring Fast Leave Processing The fast leave processing feature allows the switch to process IGMP leave group messages in a fast way. With the fast leave processing feature enabled, when receiving an IGMP leave group message on a port, the switch immediately removes that port from the outgoing port list of the forwarding table entry for the indicated group.
Operation Manual – Multicast H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 2 IGMP Snooping Configuration Caution: If fast leave processing is enabled on a port to which more than one host is attached, when one host leaves a multicast group, the other hosts attached to the port and interested in the same multicast group will fail to receive multicast data for that group.

Operation Manual – Multicast H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 5 PIM Configuration Note: To facilitate description, a network comprising PIM-capable routers is referred to as a “PIM domain” in this document. 5.1.1 Introduction to PIM-DM PIM-DM is a type of dense mode multicast protocol. It uses the “push mode” for multicast forwarding, and is suitable for small-sized networks with densely distributed multicast members.
Page 692
Operation Manual – Multicast H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 5 PIM Configuration Note: Every activated interface on a router sends hello messages periodically, and thus learns the PIM neighboring information pertinent to the interface. II. SPT establishment The process of building an SPT is the process of “flood and prune”.
Page 693
Operation Manual – Multicast H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 5 PIM Configuration Figure 5-1 SPT establishment The “flood and prune” process takes place periodically. A pruned state timeout mechanism is provided. A pruned branch restarts multicast forwarding when the pruned state times out and then is pruned again when it no longer has any multicast receiver.
Operation Manual – Multicast H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 5 PIM Configuration IV. Assert If multiple multicast routers exist on a multi-access subnet, duplicate packets may flow to the same subnet. To shut off duplicate flows, the assert mechanism is used for election of a single multicast forwarder on a multi-access network.
Operation Manual – Multicast H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 5 PIM Configuration PIM-SM is a type of sparse mode multicast protocol. It uses the “pull mode” for multicast forwarding, and is suitable for large- and medium-sized networks with sparsely and widely distributed multicast group members.
Page 696
Operation Manual – Multicast H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 5 PIM Configuration I. Neighbor discovery PIM-SM uses exactly the same neighbor discovery mechanism as PIM-DM does. Refer Neighbor discovery. II. DR election PIM-SM also uses hello messages to elect a designated router (DR) for a multi-access network.
Page 697
Operation Manual – Multicast H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 5 PIM Configuration Routers on the multi-access network send hello messages to one another. The hello messages contain the router priority for DR election. The router with the highest DR priority will become the DR.

RPT establishment Figure 5-5 RPT establishment in a PIM-SM domain As shown in Figure 5-5, the process of building an RPT is as follows: When a receiver joins a multicast group G, it uses an IGMP message to inform the directly connected DR.
Page 699
Operation Manual – Multicast H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 5 PIM Configuration The multicast data addressed to the multicast group G flows through the RP, reaches the corresponding DR along the established RPT, and finally is delivered to the receiver.
Operation Manual – Multicast H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 5 PIM Configuration The subsequent multicast data from the multicast source travels along the established SPT to the RP, and then the RP forwards the data along the RPT to the receivers.
