MulticastGroup integration by the Global Manager
Global Manager
When is included in the managed MPLS environment, the
Global Manager
receives MulticastVPN and MulticastGroup objects from both and . Because discovers draft-Rosen MVPNs, and discovers NG MVPNs, each MulticastVPN object will have a distinct name. Because discovers the multicast groups of the draft-Rosen MVPNs and the NG MVPNs, and discovers the multicast groups of the NG MVPNs,
some MulticastGroup objects will have the same name.For any two MulticastGroup objects that have the same name, which occurs when and discover the same multicast group, the
Global Manager
integrates those two objects into one MulticastGroup object. Because that MulticastGroup object is discovered and
monitored independently by and , the
Global Manager
can receive events
for that object from both and . detects and generates
VPN-misconfiguration events and performance-threshold events for MulticastGroups, and detects and generates impact events for MulticastGroups. discovers a full set of attribute information for MulticastGroups, and discovers just enough attribute information to be able
to detect MulticastGroup impact events. To view the full set of attributes for a MulticastGroup, connect a
Global Console
to .
