CiM as Client:

Some Cisco Routers may require the definition of a

Force Cisco Router Alert

 

Router Alert Option to recognize a report from a Client

Option sending V1 reports

 

to join a Multicast group. The IP Router Alert Option is

 

 

defined in RFC2113 and was introduced by Cisco.

 

 

While this option is not part of the IGMP standard, most

 

 

IGMP V2 implementations contain this option.

 

 

However, most implementations of IGMP V1 do not

 

 

contain this option. This parameter is defined to

 

 

prevent possible conflicts in networks in which a Cisco

 

 

Router is configured as an IGMP V1 server.

 

 

This parameter can assume one of the following (2)

 

 

values:

 

 

 

1.

YES

 

 

2.

NO

 

 

If set to YES, the CiM will generate IGMP reports to

 

 

join Multicast groups as specifically required by some

 

 

Cisco Router configurations.

 

 

If set to NO, the CiM will generate IGMP reports to join

 

 

Multicast groups as defined an implemented by most

 

 

IGMP servers.

CiM as Client:

I

The Unsolicited Report Interval configures the CiM to

Unsolicited Report Interval,

 

generate unsolicited reports to join a Multicast Group at

sec

 

specified time intervals. Each unsolicited report to join

 

 

a Multicast group will use the version of the IGMP

 

 

protocol as specified by the IGMP Version used for

 

 

Unsolicited Reports option.

 

 

The value of the Unsolicited Report Interval specifies

 

 

the number of seconds between unsolicited reports. A

 

 

value of zero implies that no unsolicited reports to join

 

 

a Multicast group should be generated by the CiM.

Save Parameters

S

This option allows a user to save the current

 

 

configuration of the CiM to permanent storage. This

 

 

configuration will be restored on each successive

 

 

power cycle of the CiM.

Exit

X

This option allows a user to exit the current menu and

 

 

return to its parent menu.
