Responding to mrinfo Requests
The software answers mrinfo requests sent by mrouted systems and Cisco routers and multilayer
switches. The software returns information about neighbors through DVMRP tunnels and all the routed
interfaces. This information includes the metric (always set to 1), the configured TTL threshold, the
status of the interface, and various flags. You can also use the mrinfo privileged EXEC command to
query the router or switch itself, as in this example:

Configuring Advanced DVMRP Interoperability Features
Cisco routers and multilayer switches run PIM to forward multicast packets to receivers and receive
multicast packets from senders. It is also possible to propagate DVMRP routes into and through a PIM
cloud. PIM uses this information; however, Cisco routers and multilayer switches do not implement
DVMRP to forward multicast packets.
