Flow rules to support IP multicast
IPv4 and IPv6 Multicast traffic cannot be load balanced by NP7 processors and instead is sent to the primary FPM. This is controlled by the following default flow rules:
config load-balance flow-rule
edit 15
set status enable
set vlan 0
set ether-type ipv4
set src-addr-ipv4 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
set dst-addr-ipv4 224.0.0.0 240.0.0.0
set protocol any
set action forward
set forward-slot master
set priority 5
set comment "ipv4 multicast"
next
edit 16
set status enable
set vlan 0
set ether-type ipv6
set src-addr-ipv6 ::/0
set dst-addr-ipv6 ff00::/8
set protocol any
set action forward
set forward-slot master
set priority 5
set comment "ipv6 multicast"
end
