Customizing DVMRP
117355-C Rev 00
4-35
Specifying a Threshold
Threshold values control the scope of datagram delivery. The threshold is the
minimum IP TTL required for a multicast datagram to be forwarded out a given
interface.
For mrouted compatibility, multicast datagrams originated by the router have a
TTL of 1. These datagrams are not compared against the TTL. Unicast datagrams
originated by the router (for example, for route reports issued via a tunnel) have a
TTL of 255. A datagram that is to be forwarded through a tunnel is first compared
against the threshold and, if accepted, is then encapsulated in an IP datagram with
a TTL of 64.
Table 4-2
lists:
Originating TTL values recommended for certain types of multicast
applications
Threshold values recommended for routers to permit the forwarding of
packets from these applications
These values are recommended for topologies that will connect to the MBone.
By default, DVMRP uses a threshold value of 1. You can use the BCC or Site
Manager to specify a TTL value from 1 to 254.
