Command History
Usage Guidelines The default MDT group must be the same group configured on all PE routers that belong to the same
VPN.
If Source Specific Multicast (SSM) is used as the protocol for the default MDT, the source IP address is
the address used to source the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) sessions.
A tunnel interface is created as a result of this command. By default, the destination address of the tunnel
header is the group-address argument.
Examples In the following example, Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) SSM is configured in the backbone.
Therefore, the default and data MDT groups are configured within the SSM range of IP addresses. Inside
the VPN, PIM sparse mode (PIM-SM) is configured and only Auto-RP announcements are accepted.

ip vrf vrf1
rd 1:1
group-address IP address of the default MDT group. This address serves as an identifier
for the community in that provider-edge (PE) routers configured with
the same group address become members of the group, allowing them to
receive packets sent by each other.
