Description Each time the origin DLSw2.0 router sends an explorer frame in a UDP multicast or
unicast packet, an explorer timer starts. If no response is received before the explorer
timer times out, the router retransmits the explorer frame and restarts the explorer
timer. If no response packet is received after the maximum number of explorer frame
sending attempts are made, the router stops sending attempt.
