DVMRP Holddown Timer for Deleted Routes
To avoid problems that can occur when a route is deleted, DVMRP implements a
holddown timer (see draft-ietf-idmr-dvmrp-v3-10, section 3.4.8). During the
holddown period, the deleted route is advertised as unreachable, and all
forwarding cache entries based on the route are flushed. The holddown period
lasts for two route report intervals.
The Nortel Networks implementation of DVMRP now supports the holddown
timer for deleted routes. You can use the BCC or Site Manager to enable or
disable the DVMRP holddown timer on the router. If your router needs to be
backward compatible with older implementations of DVMRP, use the default
value (holddown disabled).
For more information, see Configuring IP Multicasting and Multimedia Services.
Exclusive Login Authentication via RADIUS
This feature enables a router to authenticate multiple users (with individual
profiles) via RADIUS. If authentication between the RADIUS client and server
fails, other means will allow access to the router via Telnet and console
connections. When the server is not reachable, the router will periodically attempt
to re-establish communications as configured.
For more information, see Configuring RADIUS.
Dropping IP Source Record Routing Packets
This feature provides an IP global parameter to enable (default) or disable IP
source routing for a router. When IP source routing is disabled, the router drops
loose source record route (LSSR) and strict source record route (SRRR) packets.
This feature provides greater network security to users of IP source routing.
For more information, see Configuring IP, ARP, RARP, RIP, and OSPF Services.
