I have seen some pretty low level problems with multicast packets being dropped on the floor by the hardware forwarded on 67xx linecards. The bug seems to appear when changes that effect the asic (turning on mls qos for example). Resetting the sup engine doesn't resolve it. Everything looks

John, Is your 6748 a DFC line card? If so you are correct, moving from port 24 to 25 would have moved you to the other Janus ASIC. Janus is the fabric/mcast replication ASIC. If your problem is ONLY with mcast then you can safely ignore the Rohini. We have addressed a number of issues with

It is a DFC card. We have a TAC case open about this, but we have instances of weirdness happening on another device recently that is similar and we haven't opened a TAC case yet on that one. I wonder if we're running into an issue with the Janus ASIC. That has been suggested by some people here,

Also, I forgot to mention that we have a lot of high-rate multicast flows. Quite a few of them. Do you have an recommendations on how to determine if we're running into scale limits for this hardware? Thanks! On Thu, Jul 29, 2010 at 9:00 AM, Benjamin Lovell belov...@cisco.com wrote: John, Is

Moving from port 24 to 25 moves you to the other Janus regardless of whether there's a DFC or not. John, if as you say moving to the other replication engine (RE) solves the problem, it's possible you are simply exceeding the replication capacity of the Janus. Metro based cards (6708, 6716)
