MA5600T Multicast Feature Glance

10 Nov

Definition

Multicast is group communication where data is addressed to a group of destination hosts simultaneously. Each multicast address represents a multicast group and all hosts in a multicast group can receive the same data. Multicast applies in IPTV,multimedia conferencing, and gaming services.

Value

Reduces bandwidth overheads

Each link carries at most one copy of the same multicast data, maximally reducing bandwidth overheads.

Decreases load

Transmitting data in multicast mode decreases video server’s and CPU’s load and does not significantly increase network’s load even if the number of users increases.

Prolongs transmission distance

Multicast packets can be transmitted across network segments,implementing long-distance transmission for large-scale data.

Application

Multicast applies in the following scenarios: FTTB/FTTC, FTTH, FTTO, as well as OLT user ports connecting to multicast users.

Highlights

Powerful Multicast Capabilities, Improving IPTV Service Deployment

Primary Features Performance

  • 8 K multicast users (1 K= 1024)

  • 4 K multicast programs

  • Concurrent playing of 4000 IPv4 and 2000 IPv6 multicast programs when the SCUH control board is used

  • Multiple levels of multicast data duplication

  • IGMP fast leave

  • 50-ms channel switching

  • 3200-pps IGMP packet processing if the SCUH control board is used

  • Physical-layer G.INP retransmission for better user experience on the IPTV service

  • 900-pps IGMP packet processing on the GPFD board
Features

 

Highlights

Conversion Between M-VLANs and C-VLANs, Implementing Multiple CPs Sharing One ONT and Supporting Open Access

The multicast data transmission meets the service requirement of multiple CPs renting different ports on the same ONT in the open access scenario, improving revenue from resources.

Layer 3 Multicast for Flexible Multicast Group Address Usages

The programs issued from different multicast sources can use the same group IP address (GIP).

Compared with Layer 2 multicast, Layer 3 multicast relieves GIP limitations due to group MAC address (GMAC) conflict.

Highlights

Comprehensive Fault Locating Methods, Facilitating Rapid Multicast Service Fault Rectification

User Log Identify causes for program ordering failures by querying user logs or fault-related operation records.
IGMP Statistics Identify IGMP packet transmit and receive issues based on IGMP packet statistics.
Multicast Traffic Statistics

Based on multicast traffic statistics, determine whether:

  • Multicast data has arrived at the inbound or outbound port on the MDU at the data forwarding layer.

  • The transmission rate is excessively low.

  • Packet loss has occurred.
Multicast Emulation Emulate program ordering performed by a multicast user to locate faults by querying traffic and user information in real time.
