Link-local multicast in WLAN Deployments |
| 摘要 |
Some implementations can include a method including reserving a range of multicast addresses for handling link-local multicasts and generating a multicast group within the range for each VLAN. The method can also include subscribing at an access point to a corresponding multicast group for a VLAN when a client associates with the access point, and tunneling link local multicast traffic from the client to a WSP component via an access tunnel. The method can further include forwarding the link local multicast traffic from the WSP component to subscribing access points. |

1. A method comprising:
reserving a range of multicast addresses for handling link-local multicasts within a network; generating a multicast group within the range for each VLAN; subscribing at an access point to a corresponding multicast group for a VLAN when a client associates with the access point; tunneling link local multicast traffic from the client to a WSP component via an access tunnel; and forwarding the link local multicast traffic from the WSP component to subscribing access points. |
