Configuring and Modifying Distance Vector Multicast
Routing Protocol (DVMRP)
DVMRP uses IP packets with protocol type 2 (IGMP) to exchange
routing datagrams. DVMRP enables multicast routers to exchange
distance vector updates that contain multicast flow lists and their
corresponding cost metrics. DVMRP uses tunneling between pairs of
DVMRP routers when traffic must pass through one or more
intermediary routers or gateways that do not implement DVMRP.
You can configure DVMRP Globally using either the web agent or
the CLI.
