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 Feature Guide.

By default, DVMRP is disabled.
