Protocol Stack IP Settings
Description
IP Time to Live
Enter the number of hops to be transmitted before the packet is discarded.
This value typically fills the time to live in the IP header. SNMP refers to this
value as "ipDefaultTTL".
Multicast Time to Live
This value fills the Time To Live in any multicast IP header. Normally this
value will be one so the packet will be blocked at the first router. It is the
number of hops allowed before a multicast packet is discarded. Enter the
value to be greater than one to intentionally propagate multicast packets to
additional routers.
