Specifying the Maximum Number of Routes
By default, DVMRP stores all learned routes in the routing table. You can use the
BCC or Site Manager to specify the number of routes that DVMRP can learn per
slot. This parameter limits the number of routes that can be stored in the routing
table.
If you specify a maximum number of routes, you must include a route for every
local network that has an interface configured for multicasting.
Using the BCC
Navigate to the DVMRP global prompt and enter:
max-routes
<max>
max
is an integer indicating the maximum number of routes.
For example, the following command causes DVMRP to store in the routing table
a maximum of 25 learned routes per slot.
dvmrp#
max-routes 25
dvmrp#
