Configuring multicast on the bridge domain and interfaces

The second step in configuring multicast is to set it up on the bridge domain and at the interface level.

How it works...

We will start by adding the bridge domain:

1. Click on the plus sign next to Bridge Domains.
2. From the drop-down menu, select the TenantA/TenantA-BD bridge domain.
3. Click on SELECT.

Next, we will add an L3 Out.

4. Click on the plus sign next to Interfaces.
5. Select an L3 Out from the dropdown.

How it works...

We now have a multicast-enabled interface, with which we will be able to join a multicast group.

apic1# sh run tenant TenantA 
# Command: show running-config tenant TenantA
   tenant TenantA
      vrf context TenantA_VRF
       ip pim
       exit
     l3out EIGRP-1
       vrf member TenantA_VRF
       ip pim
       exit
     bridge-domain TenantA-BD
       vrf member TenantA_VRF
       exit
     application TenantA_AP1
        epg TenantA_EPG1
          bridge...
