I think that mrouted will only forward multicast packets that it knows another interface is subscribed to so network A would have to tell the router an IGMP packet subscribing to the multicast channel you're talking on on network B, and vice-versa. Not sure how to generate the IGMP packet, it's been a while since I worked with multicast. > Tcpdump shows the UDP multicast packets on Wireless router A from PC1 on > sis0 and UDP multicast packets on Wireless router B from PC2 on sis0. > > Any help would be greatly appreciated. > > Albert > > _______________________________________________ > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" -- I sense much NT in you.
