Re: [streaming] VLC on an IPv6 PIM SSM scenario

Hi,

I'm using ipv6 multicast SSM + vlc without any issue.

For example logs in my multicast router shows:
Dec 04 14:45:16 [eth0] MLD, Received a MLDv2 Membership Report from
fe80::226:54ff:fe10:70ad to ff02::16
Dec 04 14:45:16 Created group ff3e::1234 using source discs data-plane
Dec 04 14:45:16 Created Group ff3e::1234.
Dec 04 14:45:16 Create state for group ff3e::1234.
Dec 04 14:45:16 (ff3e::1234) Added eth0 to interface list.
Dec 04 14:45:16 [eth0] (ff3e::1234) Refresh triggered by
fe80::226:54ff:fe10:70ad with mode CHANGE_TO_INCLUDE and sources
{2001:ec2:4002:fa11:200:24ff:fec4:3235}.
Dec 04 14:45:16 [eth0] (ff3e::1234) Filter is now Include
{2001:ec2:4002:fa11:200:24ff:fec4:3235}
Dec 04 14:45:16 Created source state for 2001:ec2:4002:fa11:200:24ff:fec4:3235.
Dec 04 14:45:16 (ff3e::1234) PIM,
(2001:ec2:4002:fa11:200:24ff:fec4:3235) set_local_oif eth0  join
Dec 04 14:45:16 (ff3e::1234) PIM,
(2001:ec2:4002:fa11:200:24ff:fec4:3235) Added intf eth0
Dec 04 14:45:16 (ff3e::1234) PIM,
(2001:ec2:4002:fa11:200:24ff:fec4:3235) Intf(eth0) Changed state
NoInfo -> Include
Dec 04 14:45:16 (ff3e::1234) PIM,
(2001:ec2:4002:fa11:200:24ff:fec4:3235) update_fib(eth0) += 1 [with
iif=(null)]
Dec 04 14:45:16 (ff3e::1234) PIM,
(2001:ec2:4002:fa11:200:24ff:fec4:3235) Internal activity changed to
true
Dec 04 14:45:16 (ff3e::1234) PIM, Created state
(2001:ec2:4002:fa11:200:24ff:fec4:3235).
Dec 04 14:45:16 Target 2001:ec2:4002:fa11:200:24ff:fec4:3235 using
entry ::/0 [Static].
...

So, my router can see MLDv2 (S,G) joins.

Test performed with VLC 0.8.6 on ubuntu with 2.6.20-16-generic
Command line used: vlc -I dummy
udp://[2001:ec2:4002:fa11:200:24ff:fec4:3235]@[ff3e::1234]

Router is mrd6 runing on Linux.

Hope this help.

Regards
Seb
