ES4710BD 10 Slots L2/L3/L4 Chassis Switch

Parameters: < time_val> is the time to timeout a route, the valid range is 20 to 1400 seconds..

Default: The default timeout setting for DVMRP routes is 140 seconds.

Command mode: Global Mode

Usage Guide: If no updating report message for a route from the neighbor of the route is received in

the specified interval, then the route is considered to be invalid. This timeout interval

must be greater than that for sending report messages.

Example: Configuring the DVMRP route timeout interval to 100 seconds..

Switch (Config)#ip dvmrp route-timeout 100

19.5.2.2.9 ip dvmrp tunnel

Command: ip dvmrp tunnel [metric ]

no ip dvmrp tunnel

Function: Configures tunneling to neighbor A, B, C, D; the “no ip dvmrp tunnel” command

removes the tunnel to neighbor A, B, C, D.

Parameters: < A.B.C.D> is the IP addresses of remote neighbors; is the metric value

for the tunneling interface, ranging from 1 to 32.

Default: DVMRP tunneling is disabled by default, the default value for is 1.

Command mode: Interface Mode

Usage Guide: Since not all switches support multicast, DVMRP provides support for tunneling

multicast information. Tunneling is a method used between DVMRP switches

separated by non-multicast routing switch(es). The tunnel acts as the virtual network

between two DVMRP switches. The multicast packet is encapsulated in a unicast

packet and destined to a multicast-enabled switch. DVMRP treats the tunneling

interface the same way as common physical interfaces.

Example: Configuring a DVMRP tunnel on Ethernet interface vlan1 to the remote neighbor 1.1.1.1.

Switch(Config-If-Vlan1)#ip dvmrp tunnel 1.1.1.1 metric 10

19.5.3 Typical DVMRP Scenario

As shown in the figure below, the Ethernet interfaces of SwitchA and SwitchB are added to the

appropriate vlan, and DVMRP protocol is enabled on each vlan interface.
