All things related to multicast

[Nicholas J Humfrey <>]

Hi,

The University of Southampton is connected to m6bone/Géant via a  
tunnel. I am able to asmping and ssmping Stig's ssmping server in  
Norway ok. I am unsure of the details of how m6bone is connected to  
Internet 2?


Using asmping to test multicast connectivity to Norway (using our own  
embedded-RP):
asmping -6 ff7e:140:2001:630:d0:f000:4321:1234 ssmping.uninett.no

Using ssmping to test SSM connectivity to Norway:
ssmping -6 ssmping.uninett.no


We have an ssmping server on our network, are you able to ping it?
ssmping -6 ssmping.ecs.soton.ac.uk
asmping -6 ff7e:140:2001:630:d0:f000:4321:1234 ssmping.ecs.soton.ac.uk


Anyone else had any success from Internet2?
