Each command is listed, in detail, in the following sections.
config dvmrp
Purpose
Used to configure DVMRP on the Switch.
Syntax
config dvmrp [ipif <ipif_name 12> | all] {metric <value 1-31> | probe
<sec 1-65535> | neighbor_timeout <sec 1-65535> | state [enable |
disable]}
Description
This command is used to configure DVMRP on the Switch.
Parameters
ipif <ipif_name 12>
−
The name of the IP interface for which DVMRP is
to be configured.
all
−
Specifies that DVMRP is to be configured for all IP interfaces on
the Switch.
metric <value 1-31>
−
Allows the assignment of a DVMRP route cost to
the above IP interface. A DVMRP route cost is a relative number that
represents the real cost of using this route in the construction of a
multicast delivery tree. It is similar to, but not defined as, the hop count
in RIP. The default is 1.
probe <second 1-65535>
−
DVMRP defined an extension to IGMP that
allows routers to query other routers to determine if a DVMRP neighbor
is present on a given subnetwork or not. This is referred to as a ‘probe’.
This entry will set an intermittent probe (in seconds) on the device that
will transmit dvmrp messages, depending on the time specified. This
probe is also used to “keep alive” the connection between DVMRP
enabled devices. The default value is 10 seconds.
neighbor_timeout <second 1-65535>
−
The time period for which
DVMRP will hold Neighbor Router reports before issuing poison route
messages. The default value is 35 seconds.
state [enable | disable]
−
Allows DVMRP to be enabled or disabled.
Restrictions
Only Administrator or Operator-level users can issue this command.
