Re: [c-nsp] multicast issue
I manage a network where multicast is the most important traffic and sometimes I get issue by customer where they state that some packets are lost… I used to manage a the network for a very large financial firm, had to deal with this sort of issue all the time. I had optical taps in multiple spots in the environment. The most important ones collected data at the edge and at the server handoff. These taps fed into a Niksun appliance which wrote full packets to disk. Niksun is a powerful box, but I used it primarily to deliver pcaps, not so much for its analysis features. Analysis was done with some stuff that I'd whipped up, because I couldn't find any off-the-shelf products that gave useful visibility into what was happening on the wire.

Re: [c-nsp] multicast issue
If I get your description you have the tap (which vendor? ) at source and destination (I guess in span mode?), these taps send data to niksun appliance (which model?) that create the pcap and then you can analyse for example with wireshark these files, am I correct? The taps were NetOptics iTaps, but didn't need to be. The important part of the tap was the optical splitter, which is usually around US $300 for a duplex unit. Span mode? Nope. Just an optical splitter at the carrier handoff. The Niksun was a NetVCR appliance of some sort. I just used it for capture, not analysis. I'd probably have been happier with a Linux system and a hardware capture card (endace, napatech, etc...), but this environment tended to prefer gold-plated appliances rather than homegrown solutions. The whole system was put together in order to demonstrate whether my gear (enterprise routers/switches/firewalls) were delivering data from the transit provider's handoff down to the servers. By storing every packet that crossed the various handoffs (into my equipment at one end, and out of it at the other end), I could prove to the pricing feed people whether I was responsible for any problems they were seeing. Wireshark was one of the analysis tools I used, but it was not particularly helpful for the protocols I was transporting. The links I shared previously detailed some of the analysis techniques. /chris ___ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
Re: [c-nsp] multicast issue
Hi, We run a BGP NG-MVPN for IPTV content delivery, with Juniper MX480 in the PE layer and Cisco CRS in the P layer. With RSVP-TE P2MP LSP running from the Sender PE ( which is connecting to the multicast upstream HE router ) to the Receiver PE routers ( with downstream GPON IPTV subscribers ). We have BrixVision IPTV probes at the Sender PE router before the traffic enter our MPLS cloud and the same type of probes at Receiver PE routers. So far there is no need for IPTV probes along the RSVP-TE P2MP LSP path. This will help to determine the traffic quality in the IP/MPLS core. At the downstream we have STB probe aka Single Channel Probe from the same brand deployed at the customer's place if there is a picture quality complaint. This will help us to determine issue from receiver PE router through the GPON networks towards the customer home. We had evaluated Ineoquest before, however we found Brixvision was more suitable to our environment. In the early stage of deployment we kept our eye on the IAT and MLR on the probe almost everyday. The Brixvision has very detail real time zoomed-in analysis like TS Sync, PAT, CRC and etc per group. Hope this help.

After reading this thread it sounds like it could be DSLAM related. Our brand (OCCAM/Calix) has a few interesting gotchas along these lines. I take it you don't see the same behavior directly connected to the switch? Also this is a Cisco-oriented list, while some people are familiar with other vendors, other gear isn't exactly the group's expertise.

Hi there, A few questions: 1. What IGMP version is used? 2. What kind is the platform - 65/76 and if so - what modules are used. If this is an IGMPv3 - there is a well known issue with it.

Agree - it still points toward a bandwidth issue, Mohammad. The picture is fine with only one stream, but goes noisy when add a second one. Check to make sure: a) How much bandwidth you can actually squeeze through the link, Unicast and Multicast. b) What you're being told you have is what you actually have. c) If there is QoS enabled in the case that the link is carrying non-Multicast traffic also. Another exercise for you would be to try and watch the same channel on another Tv off the same switch. This is to make sure that Multicast is actually work, and that a second copy of the same stream isn't being created on the same switch that holds the (S,G) for the original stream. Again, 101 things possibly going on here, but without any more concrete information, we're shooting in the dark.
