DVMRP Interface Settings

To view the DVMRP Interface Table, click Configuration > Layer 3 IP Networking > IP Multicast Routing Protocol
> DVMRP Interface Settings. 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 window. To configure DVMRP for a particular interface, click the
corresponding hyperlink for that IP interface. This will open the DVMRP Interface Settings window:
The following fields can be set:

IP Address
Neighbor Timeout
Interval (1-65535)
Probe Interval (1-
65535)
Metric (1-31)

Description
Displays the name of the IP interface for which DVMRP is to be configured. This must
be a previously defined IP interface.
Displays the IP address corresponding to the IP Interface name entered above.
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.
This field allows an entry between 1 and 65,535 seconds and defines the interval
between 'probes'. The default is 10.
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.
This field can be toggled between Enabled and Disabled and enables or disables
DVMRP for the IP interface. The default is Disabled.
