All things related to multicast

[Bruce Campbell <>]

Was anyone in Ontario (on ORION) able to see this ?  I couldn't.

Mind you, we had lost msdp on or border for a while, when we renumbered
the interface, but I thought we had fixed that.  "show ip msdp sa-cache"
on our border just seems to show 200-300 Ontario sources (Brock, McMaster,
York, and a few others).  VLC SAP announcements just show 1 (Brock),
that used to show a few hundred.

Thanks for any advice.
