Parameters
source-address: Specifies a multicast source address.
mask: Specifies the mask of the multicast source address.
mask-length: Specifies the mask length of the multicast source address, in the range of 0 to 32.
protocol: Routing protocol, which can have any of the following values:
bgp: Specifies the BGP protocol.
isis: Specifies the IS-IS protocol.
ospf: Specifies the OSPF protocol.
rip: Specifies the RIP protocol.
static: Specifies a static route.
The following matrix shows the values for the protocol argument on different firewalls and UTM devices:
Hardware Protocol
F1000-A-EI/F1000-S-EI bgp, ospf, rip, and static
F1000-E bgp, ospf, rip, and static
F5000 bgp, isis, ospf, rip, and static
Firewall module bgp, ospf, rip, and static
U200-A bgp, ospf, rip, and static
U200-S ospf, rip, and static
process-id: Specifies the process number of the unicast routing protocol, in the range of 1 to 65535. This
argument must be provided if IS-IS, OSPF or RIP is the specified unicast routing protocol.
policy-name: Specifies the name of the routing policy used for matching static multicast routes, a
case-sensitive string of 1 to 63 characters.
rpf-nbr-address: Specifies an RPF neighbor by the IP address.
interface-type interface-number: Specifies an interface by its type and number. The interface connects the
RPF neighbor.
preference: Specifies a route preference, in the range of 1 to 255 and defaulting to 1.
order-number: Specifies a match order for routes on the same segment, in the range of 1 to 100.
Usage guidelines
The arguments source-address { mask | mask-length }, protocol and policy-name are critical elements in
static multicast route configuration. The variation of any of these arguments results in a different
configuration.
When you configure a static multicast route, the system first examines whether any of these argument
exists. If the system finds a match, you must modify the corresponding fields without changing the
configuration sequence. Otherwise, the system adds a static multicast route.
When you configure a static multicast route, specify an RPF neighbor only by providing its IP address
(rpf-nbr-address) rather than providing the type and number (interface-type interface-number) of the
interface connecting the RPF if the interface of the RPF neighbor is a Layer 3 Ethernet interface, Layer 3
aggregate interface, Loopback interface, or VLAN interface.
