Hello fellow networking enthusiasts,
I have a few specific questions concerning this:
1. *Will a N7k/N5k translate GM-LSPs into PIM-Join messages, on a boundary
link that has a remote peer running PIM-SM?
No. FP ISIS GM-LSPs are an L2 concept here, they basically track
group membership state at L2 inside the FP core. FP ISIS would not
"peer" with a router running PIM-SM; you would typically have an SVI
enabled for the FP VLAN, and that would have PIM enabled to integrate to L3.
2. *Same question as it relates to sources learned, that are within the
FabricPath domain. Will PIM Register messages be generated, and sent to the
RP in the PIM-SM domain?
Not without an SVI/router interface running PIM connected into the FP domain.
3. *Any general information regarding this topic would be greatly
appreciated, as I could find very little documentation about this.
Think of FP GM-LSPs as an extension of IGMP snooping. All the L3
integration is basically the same in FP and classical Ethernet.
Hope that helps,
Tim
Regards,
YuriB
