Has anyone succeeded in having XORP run properly with IGMP/PIM-SM on FreeBSD 8.0 ?
I enabled MROUTING in the kernel, installed XORP, configured a GRE tunnel to a Cisco router but it won't advance further than receiving PIM_HELLO packets.
I believe I've literally tried every option possible. If we drop a Cisco router instead of the BSD box it will work like a charm. Unless I'm missing something obvious, I'm starting to believe there is a bug within FreeBSD or XORP which is causing this.
I've seen a few mailing list posts which point out bugs within the multicast code of FreeBSD and I wanted to check here first to make sure that's not the case.
Thank you!
