Hi Andrew, Thanks for all the valuable info you have provided, generally my setup is fitting into all what you have mentioned except for the RP, which i have changed as per your recommendation. two points here, first my MS switches SW is MS 10.45 and is shown as up to date on the dashboard so if 11.x has been released, shouldn't it give me an update available status ? secondly, I think the multicast is acting oddly on my network as there is connectivity disconnections happens when any changes made to multicast settings even on other VLANs/subnets which doesn't have the multicast routing enabled?, also when i go to core switch> Tools> Multicast routing and run this tool which i think should show me something like the multicast routing table it gives me nothing!!?? @m_Andrew

Hello Gents, I have a setup having 2 core switches (MS425-32) stacked operating at L3 and 2 server farm switches (MS350-48) stacked operating at L2. IPTV system components including Cisco DCM and receivers all physically connected to server farm switches which is then connected to the 2 core switches. all L3 interfaces are created on the core stack. we have 1 subnet/vlan for DCM input and receivers output interfaces, 1 subnet/vlan for DCM output, and 2 different subnets/vlans for set top boxes and TVs. my question is how the multicast should be configured on Meraki according to the best practice including: - Which interfaces should be configured with multicast enabled and which should be configured with querier? - Is it okay to have the interfaces created on the core while the multicast sources are all physically connected to the server farm stack? (core is all fiber interfaces and can't host the UTP connections). - How the randevous point interface should be configured? and should it be a separate interface or it's better to choose one for example the STBs subnet interface as the RP? - What's the best practices to have smooth multicast flowing through the network? - I have an issue that the channel stream becomes unavailable after a while (around 1 hour) then if we changed the channels the stream comes back normally then after a while goes again and so on, what could be the probable reason for that? @m_Andrew @PhilipDAth

although the MX firewall but all the IPTV streaming is not passing through it as it's local on the LAN

we are not subscribed to IPTV service, we have our Cisco IPTV solution on premises, so IPTV system is operating on our local LAN, it was working perfectly fine with conventional Cisco 4500 and 2960 switches, but we are now changing our LAN to Cisco Meraki switches.

Hi Gents, I have an IPTV setup having ENSEO set top boxes, on conventional Cisco switches it was working perfectly with the below DHCP options configured: ip dhcp pool ENSEO-STBs-Pool import all network 10.10.25.0 255.255.255.0 bootfile http://10.10.14.3/nevotv/default.aspx default-router 10.10.25.1 I'm trying to do the same on Meraki dashboard as we are moving the whole setup to Meraki switches, so i added a DHCP configuration to the correct interface using the Boot Next-Server: 10.10.14.3 and the Boot filename: /nevotv/default.aspx (also tried \nevotv\default.aspx, and nevotv/default.aspx). also i tried to use DHCP custom option 67 with type text and value: http://10.10.14.3/nevotv/default.aspx all without success, the ENSEO STB is always not able to reach the boot file, so any ideas how could i reach the same DHCP boot file using Meraki setup?
