Figure 9 - 45. DVMRP Interface Settings window
This menu allows the Distance-Vector Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP) to be configured for each IP interface defined on
the Switch. Each IP interface configured on the Switch is displayed in the below DVMRP Interface Configuration dialog box. To
configure DVMRP for a particular interface, click the corresponding hyperlink for that IP interface. This will open the DVMRP
Interface Settings Edit window:
Figure 9 - 46. DVMRP Interface Settings window
The following fields can be set:
Parameters Description
Interface Name
Displays the name of the IP interface for
which DVMRP is to be configured. This
must be a previously defined IP interface.
IP Address
Displays the IP address corresponding to
the IP Interface name entered above.
Neighbor Timeout
Interval (1-65535)
This field allows an entry between 1 and
65,535 seconds and defines the time
period DVMRP will hold Neighbor Router
reports before issuing poison route
messages. The default is 35 seconds.
Probe Interval (1-
65535)
This field allows an entry between 1 –
65535 seconds and defines the interval
between probes. The default is ten.
Metric (1-31)
This field allows an entry between 1 and 31
and defines the route cost for the IP
interface. The 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 cost is 1.
State
This field can be toggled between Enabled
and Disabled and enables or disables
DVMRP for the IP interface. The default is
Disabled.
Click Apply to implement changes made.
PIM
The Protocol Independent Multicast - Dense Mode (PIM-DM) protocol should be used in networks with a low delay (low latency)
and high bandwidth as PIM-DM is optimized to guarantee delivery of multicast packets, not to reduce overhead.
