All things related to multicast

Huy,

It's really no different assuming you've already got interdomain multicast routing working. Just make sure you are using a large enough TTL. Some of the tools set it to 1. Also, see multicast.internet2.edu(I think that's the right place) for past hands-on workshop materials which include a number of interdomain test scenarios.

Dear all,

I'm trying to setup a mcast experiment where I can use iperf to send mcast UDP packets from 1 node and observe

the packet loss ratio on another node over Internet2.

I was able to setup a similar experiment over different VLANs using network infastructure at University of Houston.

Now I'm extending the problem size and trying to setup the experiment on Internet2 to study the packet loss ratio.

I'm new to internet2 so I want to know if there are tutorials that help me with the experiment setup?

I just do'nt really know where to start

Any advice would be appreciated

Thank you
