For CoreBuilder 9000: Applies to Layer 3 switching modules only.

Configures a default route for IP multicast traffic on a DVMRP interface. This interface advertises itself as a default route to neighboring DVMRP routers.

Important Considerations

 

 

 

 

■ A default route metric of 0 means that the default route function is

 

not activated on the interface (interface does not advertise 0.0.0.0 to

 

DVMRP routers). Values other than 0 means that the default route

 

function is activated and these values represent the “cost” of the

 

default route.

 

 

 

 

■ Definitions of default route modes:

 

 

 

 

■ all — The interface advertises the default route plus all other

 

known routes to neighboring DVMRP routers.

 

 

■ only — The interface advertises only the default route to

 

neighboring DVMRP routers.

 

 

 

 

If the system learns a default route, it propagates it no matter which

 

mode is set on a given interface.

 

 

 

 

■ The system allows you to configure an interface as a DVMRP default

 

route, even when DVMRP is disabled on the interface. If DVMRP is

 

disabled, the interface does not advertise itself as a default route.
