Minimum DVMRP Configuration

To enable DVMRP on an interface, include at least the following statements in the configuration. All other DVMRP configuration statements are optional.

routing-options {
interface-routes {
rib-group group-name1;
}
rib-groups {
group-name1 {
import-rib [ inet.0 inet.2 ];
}
group-name2 {
import-rib inet.2;
export-rib inet.2;
}
}
}
protocols {
dvmrp {
rib-group group-name2;
interface interface-name;
}
}

You can include these statements at the following hierarchy levels:

The port of a DVMRP router can be either a physical interface to a directly attached subnetwork or a tunnel interface to another multicast-capable area of the Multicast Backbone (MBone). All interfaces can be configured with a metric specifying cost for receiving packets on a given port. The default metric is 1.
