If it's enough / consistent enough packet drops you should be able to see a
diff on the two tunnel routers in sh ip mroute x.x.x.x x.x.x.x count. This
should at least confirm where the drops are happing.
Mcast packet forwarding is not significantly different for being over a GRE
tunnel if we are talking about a software router (do normal mcast stuff then
hand off for encap or decap then hand to mcast code). Hardware platforms on the
other hand are a diff story.

Hi All,
Was hoping someone can provide some advice with regards to troubleshooting a
particularly painful multicast issue.
The set up isnt particularly complex:
Servers SwitchTunnel router (RP) GRE over WAN Tunnel router
SwitchServers
The tunnel router interfaces have been configured with the TCP mss adjust mtu
command and set to 1400.
Everythings been up and working for a year but recently weve been
experiencing
issues with mcast and can see dropped packets when using a sniffer on the
server. The suspicion lies with the WAN provider who has recently made
changes
but extended pings/sweeps over the WAN shows no drops.
Has anyone any ideas or experience on how to troubleshoot packet loss over
GRE
for multicast?
