LABEL

DESCRIPTION

Active

Select Active to enable DVMRP on the switch. You should do this if you want the switch to

act as a multicast router.

Index

Index is the DVMRP configuration for the IP routing domain defined under Network. The

maximum number of DVMRP configurations allowed is the maximum number of IP routing

domains allowed on the switch. See the IP Setup chapter for more information on IP

routing domains.

Network

This is the IP routing domain IP address and subnet mask you set up in IP Setup.

VID

DVMRP cannot be enabled on the same VLAN group across different IP routing domains,

that is, you cannot have duplicate VIDs for different DVMRP configurations (see

Figure 98

on page 166

).

Active

Select Active to enable DVMRP on this IP routing domain.

Threshold

Threshold is the maximum time to live (TTL) value. TTL is used to limit the scope of

multicasting. You should reduce this value if you do not wish to flood Layer 3 devices many

hops away with multicast traffic. This applies only to multicast traffic this switch sends out.

Apply

Click Apply to save these changes to the switch.

Cancel

Click Cancel to begin configuring this part of the screen afresh.
