Without seeing you config files for Router_1 or Router_2, the things you need to check are

-Do you have an RP configured for this multicast group? Are you using Static RP or BSR?
-Is there a unicast routing protocol running between the routers?

Subject: [Xorp-users] configure PIM-SM

Hi,

I am trying to configure PIM-SM. In order to understand my problem, I am going to show my configuration information.

[Desktop_1] (eth0) <---------------> (eth0) [Router_1] (eth1) <-----------------> (eth1) [Router_2] (eth0) <------------------> (eth0) [Desktop_2]

Desktop_1, Desktop_2, Router_1, Router_2: Ubuntu 10.
Desktop_1 => Client
Desktop_2 => Server
IGMPv3 is configured on Router_1's eth0

To config xorp on Router_1 and Router_2, I followed this link "http://xorp.run.montefiore.ulg.ac.be/latex2wiki/user_manual/pim_sparse_mode". In addition, I wrote 2 small program (client & server). Server will send multicast packet, and client will receive it.
The problem is the client cannot receive data from server.
I used the wireshark to capture packet and I realized that the Router_2 didnot forward the packet from Desktop_2. I already checked the kernel to make sure that multicast routing and PIM-SM is enabled.

Could you help me to solve this problem?
