    • RE: Multicast just hangs

      Found the issue! After some research and discussion with Cisco, we had to add “PIM” to the vlan on our core, even though both the server and client are both on the same vlan!

      Used the command - ip pim sparse-dense-mode on vlan 1 interface and it started working like a charm! I really appreciate everyone’s assistance here. This will help our institution so very much.

    • RE: Multicast just hangs

      @Tom-Elliott Good thinking, I just attempted that but it seemed to make no difference. My clients still seem to hang on the partclone screen. I did reach out to Cisco to check to see if my 6509E core switch has all the correct settings on it for multicasting. I also made sure the port the server was on is using “port-fast”. It worked like a charm the moment I plugged it into the edge switch. I will do some more testing while I wait for Cisco to answer me back. Sorry for all the back and forth with this, I really do appreciate this product, it’s developers, and the dedicated community behind it.

    • RE: Multicast just hangs

      Ok more developments, we found when running the udpcast commands to test, the tests failed. I switched the Poweredge server (where FOG is installed) over to the same Cisco 2960S switch as the target computers and multicast worked perfectly!!! So it seems to be something with my Cisco 6509E core switch. I checked to make sure IGMP snooping was enabled on the core, but other than that I am unsure what to check. Any thoughts?

      @Sebastian-Roth I will be testing again today. My apologies on this taking so long. I will report back.

      @george1421 After a reboot there is no change. The computer is still deploying images via unicast without an issue. I updated the Kernel to the latest version, no change. One question, could I have the interfaces for multicast set wrong? Is there a way to check on the CentOS server what they are really named? Also inside the system can I check this? Just in case the WebUI is reporting it back incorrect?

      @george1421 We use Cisco C2960S switches in those labs. The core is also Cisco.

      @george1421

      Some additional information and questions:

      I enabled “igmp snooping” on all of the switches and I verified that it is enabled on the switch that lab full of computers sits under.

      I am happy to review the multicast settings. I put them in the main body of this post, do they look correct?

      How do I check the firewall on the fog server (CentOS 7). I am pretty sure I disabled it entirely but can’t remember.

      I did a config restore from my dev system which was a virtual machine. Could this be screwing something up? Something brought over incorrectly?

      @george1421 Yes, when I capture or deploy an image using Unicast, everything is happy ducky wonderful. Images capture and deploy without an issue what so ever.

    • RE: Multicast just hangs

      @george1421 Yes, I have the “em1” interface of the FOG server, and the network card of the Dell Computer I am trying to image on the same subnet.

      The output of the “ip addr show” command on the FOG server is:

      1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
          link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
          inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo

          inet6 ::1/128 scope host
             valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

    • RE: Multicast just hangs

      @george1421 Wait, you aren’t allowed to have the FOG server on the same subnet as the clients?! This is how we do most everything right now. We plan to subnet our devices later on, but previously with Ghost and other multicast products we just multicast with devices and the server on the same subnet. Is this still possible?

      Additionally, the output of the command you specified “sudo ps aux|grep udp-sender” is:

      root 13864 0.0 0.0 115300 1480 ? S Aug30 0:00 sh -c /usr/local/sbin/udp-sender --interface em1 --min-receivers 3 --max-wait 1200 --portbase 56590 --full-duplex --ttl 32 --nokbd --nopointopoint --file /images/BaseImage/d1p1.img;/usr/local/sbin/udp-sender --interface em1 --min-receivers 3 --max-wait 10 --portbase 56590 --full-duplex --ttl 32 --nokbd --nopointopoint --file /images/BaseImage/d1p2.img;
      root 14393 0.0 0.0 8688 660 ? S Aug30 0:00 /usr/local/sbin/udp-sender --interface em1 --min-receivers 3 --max-wait 10 --portbase 56590 --full-duplex --ttl 32 --nokbd --nopointopoint --file /images/BaseImage/d1p2.img
      root 31094 0.0 0.0 112708 992 pts/0 S+ 11:39 0:00 grep --color=auto udp-sender

      As you can see, it sees the interface em1, unless I am wrong and em1 isn’t the name of the interface, but that is what it says when I do an “ip addr” command on the server.
