Hi Rene and staff,
i am trying to test multicast scope in a basic lab
My goal is to build a site-local scope with all the routers and to test connectivity using multicast address FF05::2
So i want to ping FF05::2 from R4 and hope to receive replies from R1,R2,R3
From the perspective of R4, at the beginning, join groups are
FF02::1 because R4 is a IPV6 node
FF02::2 because i set ipv6 unicast-routing
FF02::1:FF00:4 because of SNMA corresponding to link-local fe80::4
Next i set the interface g0/3 of R4 with a basic site-local address with ULA
Surprisingly fd00/8 appears like global unicast
(I notice that SNMA FF02::1:FF00:1 group is join automaticaly and that is OK)
Q1: why fd00/8 appears like global unicast ?
Q2: can i set a site-local address on G0/3 of R4 and group multicast FF05::2 will be join automaticaly ? Is it the way it works?
Q3: can i acheive my goal (to ping FF05::2 and get replies) just setting ULA on the interfaces ?
Regards
