DVMRP Configuration Guidelines

To configure the Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP), you include statements at the [edit protocols dvmrp] or [edit logical-router logical-router-name protocols dvmrp] hierarchy level of the configuration. You can include the following statements in the configuration: 

[edit]

protocols {

    dvmrp {

        disable; 

        export [ policy-names ]; 

        import [ policy-names ]; 

        interface interface-name {

            disable;

            hold-time seconds ;

            metric metric ;

            mode (forwarding | unicast-routing);

        }

        rib-group group-name ;

        traceoptions {

            file name <replace> <size size> <files number > <no-stamp> 

                <(world-readable | no-world-readable)>;

            flag flag <flag-modifier > <disable>; 

        }

    }

}



[edit logical-routers logical-router-name]

protocols {

    dvmrp {

        disable; 

        export [ policy-names ]; 

        import [ policy-names ]; 

        interface interface-name {

            disable;

            hold-time seconds ;

            metric metric ;

            mode (forwarding | unicast-routing);

        }

        rib-group group-name ;

        traceoptions {

            file name <replace> <size size> <files number > <no-stamp> 

                <(world-readable | no-world-readable)>;

            flag flag <flag-modifier > <disable>; 

        }

    }

}

For an overview of logical routers and a detailed example of logical router configuration, see the logical routers chapter of the JUNOS Internet Software Feature Guide.

By default, DVMRP is disabled.

This chapter describes the following tasks for configuring DVMRP:
