Abstract

Some examples relate to auto-configuration of a parameter related to a multicast protocol on a network device. In an example, a network device in a multicast network may identify the network topology of the multicast network. Upon identification, the network device may enable a multicast protocol on the network device based on the network topology of the multicast network. The network device may determine a network parameter related to the multicast network. In response to the determination, a multicast parameter related to the multicast protocol may be auto-configured on the network device.
