192 SSR Command Line Interface Reference Manual
dvmrp start
Purpose
Starts DVMRP multicast routing.
Format
dvmrp start
Mode
Configure
Description
The dvmrp start command starts DVMRP multicast routing on the configured multicast-
enabled interfaces and tunnels.
Note:
Because DVMRP is the only multicasting protocol on the SSR, IGMP starts and
stops along with DVMRP. If you want to start IGMP on local interfaces, you still
must use this command.
DVMRP is by default not running. DVMRP does not interact with any unicast
protocol. However if you need to run a tunnel, make sure that the tunnel is
reachable by a unicast routing mechanism.
Parameters
None.
Restrictions
None.
