Configuring IP Multicasting Services
4-4 114064 Rev. B
In Figure 4-1, for example, Router D becomes active and issues routing probes on
four multicasting interfaces. Router D receives reports from its multicasting
neighbors, Routers B, C, and E.
Source Route Advertisements
A source network is any network containing hosts that have the capability to issue
multicast datagrams. DVMRP advertises shortest-path routes to multicasting
source networks. In this respect, DVMRP is the opposite of RIP, which advertises
routes to destination networks.
Periodically, each multicasting router issues full or partial routing information on
each DVMRP circuit, using DVMRP report messages. This routing information
represents the sending router’s cost to reach the specified source network. The
cost is the sum of the hop metrics along the shortest path to the given source
network.
Upon receiving a DVMRP report from another router, DVMRP reexamines its
routing table to determine if the shortest path information needs updating.
Specifically, DVMRP looks in the routing table for an entry describing a route to
the same source network. If a route exists, DVMRP compares the cost of the two
routes. DVMRP stores the route with the lower cost in its routing table.
A router will not send out route reports on an interface until it knows (by means of
received probes or reports) that it has a neighboring multicast router on that
interface. However, a router will continue to send probes periodically on an
interface.
How DVMRP Chooses a Route
Each DVMRP interface is configured with a metric that indicates the cost of the
hop. A router that receives multiple route reports for the same multicasting source
network compares the cost specified in each (based on the metric field) and stores
information from the report with the lowest cost in its routing table.
A route metric is the sum of all the interface (hop) metrics from a given route
source to a given router. Currently, DVMRP restricts a route via multicast hosts
(mrouted) to a total metric value of 31 or less.
