Cisco Cisco Multicast Manager 3.2

Cisco Multicast Manager 3.2 provides the following new features:

Show L2 Switches in Forwarding Tree—CMM 3.2 shows Layer-2 switches in the forward trace 
in addition to the existing display of routers and video probes. In addition, CMM also supports the 
ability to automatically discovery Layer-2 devices as part of the multicast discovery process.

Show L2 Multicast Receivers in Forwarding Tree—CMM 3.2 displays multicast receiver 
information when you click on devices on the Multicast Trace page. This feature is supported for 
7600 and 6500 class devices.

Automatic L2 Device Discovery—You can configure CMM 3.2 to automatically discover Layer-2 
devices during domain discovery.

Unicast Flow Trace for VidMon Devices—You can now launch a unicast flow trace from the 
VidMon flow monitoring page. The unicast trace includes the devices that were discovered in the 
domain.

IP Unnumbered Topology—Provides the ability to handle cases where a customer is using IP 
unnumbered interfaces to carry multicast traffic.

SG Polling Configuration by Range—With CMM 3.2, you can configure SG polling for a range 
of Source IP addresses or Group IP addresses.

Flexible Device Access for Telnet and SSH —Improves device access by adding the ability for the 
user to select both Telnet and SSH access for devices in the domain. SSH v1 and SSH v2 are 
supported.

Support for P2P/P2MP TE Links—CMM now supports the ability to run a complete multicast 
trace from a source customer network, through a Point-to-Multipoint Traffic Engineering (PM2MP 
TE) tunnel to the destination customer network(s). CMM 3.2 provides a new Distributed Network 
Discovery/P2MP option to discover devices over P2MP TE tunnels.

Support for 3750 and 4500 Switches—Cisco Multicast Manager 3.2 adds support for Cisco 
Catalyst 3750 Series Switches and Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series Switches.

Enhanced VidMon Support—CMM receives traps from various routers and video probes. CMM 
3.2 also supports polling for specific data when cfmNotifyAlarm traps are received from VidMon 
devices, and uses the collected information to generate the necessary metrics.

Cisco DCM Support—Cisco Multicast Manager 3.2 adds support for the Cisco Digital Content 
Manager (DCM).

Displaying Date and Time of Last Successful Login—Cisco Multicast Manager 3.2 displays to 
users their last current login time.

Disabling of User IDs Not Used for Over 90 Days—CMM 3.2 disables a user account if it is not 
used for more than 90 days. The user is not be able to logon anymore and CMM displays the message 
“Your User ID is disabled.”

Password Aging—CMM 3.2 enforces password changes every 60 days. Users are prompted to 
change their password.

Support for VMWare ESXi 4.x—Cisco Multicast Manager 3.2 supports VMWare ESXi 4.x 
environments.

Trace Using Management IP Address—In some service provider environments, access to PIM 
interface may be blocked, which affects CMM traces. With CMM 3.2, you can configure multicast 
flow trace based on either the PIM neighbor address of a device or the management IP address.
