Table 53. Mtrace Scenarios (continued)
Scenario Output
|Hop| OIF IP |Proto| Forwarding Code |Source
Network/Mask|
---------------------------------------------------------
--------
0 4.4.4.5 --> Destination
-1 4.4.4.4 PIM -
6.6.6.0/24
-2 20.20.20.2 PIM - 6.6.6.0/24
-3 10.10.10.1 PIM No route
default
---------------------------------------------------------
---------
If you invoke a weak mtrace query
(without the multicast group details) and
the RPF neighbor on one of the nodes
to the source is not PIM enabled, the
output of the command displays a NO
ROUTE error code in the Forwarding
Code column. In the command output,
the entry for that node in the Source
Network/Mask column displays the value
as default.
R1>mtrace 6.6.6.6 4.4.4.5
Type Ctrl-C to abort.
Querying reverse path for source 6.6.6.6 to destination
4.4.4.5 via group 234.1.1.1
From source (?) to destination (?)

-3 10.10.10.1 PIM No route
default
---------------------------------------------------------
---------
If a multicast tree is not formed due to
a configuration issue (for example, PIM is
not enabled on one of the interfaces on
the path), you can invoke a weak mtrace
to identify the location in the network
where the error has originated.
R1>mtrace 6.6.6.6 4.4.4.5
Type Ctrl-C to abort.
Querying reverse path for source 6.6.6.6 to destination
4.4.4.5 via RPF
From source (?) to destination (?)

-2 20.20.20.2 PIM 6.6.6.0/24
-3 10.10.10.1 PIM Multicast disabled
6.6.6.0/24
---------------------------------------------------------
---------
If the destination provided in the
command is not a valid receiver for the
multicast group, the last hop router for
the destination provides the WRONG
LAST HOP error code. If the last-hop
router contains a path to the source,
R1>mtrace 6.6.6.6 5.5.5.5 234.1.1.1
Type Ctrl-C to abort.
Querying reverse path for source 6.6.6.6 to destination
4.4.4.5 via group 234.1.1.1
From source (?) to destination (?)
