Web Agent Procedure

To modify a DMVRP interface using the Web Agent:

  1. In the navigation pane, expand the Routing > DVMRP folders, and then click Interfaces.
  2. The DVMRP Interfaces Web page is displayed in the content pane. See Figure�109.

Figure�109:�DVMRP Interfaces Web Page


Note: You must first set "multicast protocol" on an interface to DVMRP before you can configure DVMRP. See "Displaying Existing IP Interfaces," earlier in this chapter, and enable a multicast protocol for this interface.

  1. See Table�71 to complete your DVMRP configuration
  2. Click APPLY to save your changes, or CANCEL to restore previous settings.

Table�71:�DVMRP Interface Parameters �
Parameter
Description
Select
Select a DVMRP interface that you want to configure.
Interface
Displays the Interface that is configured with the DVMRP multicast protocol.
IP Address
Displays the IP address of each interface. You cannot modify this field.
IP Address Mask
Displays the Subnet mask for each interface. You cannot modify this field.
Interface Type
Select an Interface type. You can configure the interface type as:
  • Broadcast - All traffic is forwarded through the routers. This is not a tunnel and does not require encapsulation.
  • Non-Encapsulated Tunnel - All multicast data traffic is IPIP encapsulated, but the protocol messages are unicast.
  • IPIP Tunnel - All multicast traffic (data and protocol messages) are encapsulated in IP unicast packets with the protocol set to IPIP (IP in IP).
Tunnel Endpoint Address
Displays the Tunnel endpoint IP address of a router. You can modify this setting to represent the end router IP address to which you want to send datagrams through a tunnel. The origin and endpoint routers are separated by a gateway(s) or a router(s) that do not support DVMRP.
Interface Metric
Displays the Cost metric for the interface.
The valid range for this field is 1 to 31. The default setting is 1.
Src Host Addr in Prune Msg
Select Disable to send prune messages with only the subnet portion of the source address.
The default is Enable (sends prune messages with the full source host address).
Interface Scope
Select the minimum TTL (time-to-live) required for a packet to leave this interface. The options are None, 127, and 255.
