Chapter 2 Establishing Connectivity
Enabling Stub Multicast Routing
Replace mc-source-if-name with the name of the PIX Firewall interface that is connected to the MC
router. This is typically the outside interface. For example, the following command enables the
forwarding of IGMP reports on the currently selected PIX
Firewall interface, when the MC router is
connected to the interface named “outside.”
igmp forward interface outside
Step 4 (Optional) Define static IGMP entries by using the following command:
igmp join-group group-address
Enter this command on the downstream interface, which has receiving hosts in the multicast group.
This command configures the interface to be a statically connected member of the specified group. This
allows the PIX
Firewall to act for a client that may not be able to respond via IGMP, but still requires
reception. This command is applied to the downstream interface toward the receiving hosts.
Step 5 Create an access list entry to permit inbound traffic to the multicast address:
access-list acl_ID permit udp host ip-address host group-address
Step 6 Apply the access list to the Outside interface for inbound multicast transmissions:
access-group acl_ID in interface outside
Note It is suggested that you narrow down the host that is sourcing the multicast stream.
Step 7 (Optional) Configure the multicast groups that hosts can join:
access-list acl_ID permit igmp any destination_addr destination_mask
This command configures an access control list that allows IGMP traffic to permissible Class D
destination addresses.
• Replace acl_ID with the name of the access control list.
• Replace destination_addr with the Class D address of the multicast group from which you wish to
allow hosts to receive multicast transmissions. To define many multicast groups with a single
command, use the object grouping feature, described in “
Simplifying Access Control with Object
Grouping” in Chapter 3, “Controlling Network Access and Use.”
Step 8 Apply the access list by entering the following command from the multicast subcommand mode:
igmp access-group acl_ID
This command applies the access list to the multicast interface that you are currently configuring.
Example 2-6 Inside Receiving Hosts
In the following example, inside clients must register with the multicast group with the Class D address
225.2.1.14:
multicast interface inside
igmp join-group 225.2.1.14
After entering these commands, the PIX Firewall will act as an interested host for 224.1.1.1 and act
accordingly on the interface to which the command was applied. Other downstream interfaces may be
added to the list dynamically via IGMP.
