To configure an SSM translate policy

Note: IGMP must be enabled on the routers to which you intend to distribute the SSM translate policy.

Steps
 
1 

Choose Policies→Multicast→SSM Translate from the NFM-P main menu. The SSM Translate Policies form opens.


2 

Click Create or select an existing policy and click Properties. The SSM Translate Policy (Create|Edit) form opens.


3 

Configure the parameters as required.


4 

Click on the SSM Translate Items tab and click Create. The SSM Translate Policy Item (Create) form opens.


5 

Configure the parameters as required and save your changes. The SSM Translate Policy (Create|Edit) form reappears.

Note: The SSM Translate Items added to a policy should not have overlapping IPv4 address ranges, otherwise a configuration error message will be issued.


6 

Click Apply to save your changes. The form refreshes to display additional tabs and buttons.


7 

Click Distribute to manually release and distribute the policy locally to devices. See To release and distribute a policy for additional information. Policies are also automatically distributed to devices when they are used by resources on the device.

Note: When you distribute an SSM Translate policy to a router, it replaces any SSM Translate policy that may exist on that router. All existing SSM Translate Items on the router will be overwritten.


8 

Close the SSM Translate Policy (Create|Edit) form. The SSM Translate Policies form reappears.


9 

Click Search to display the newly created policy or policies in the bottom panel of the form.
