Configuring Advanced DVMRP Interoperability Features
Rejecting a DVMRP Nonpruning Neighbor
By default, Cisco devices accept all DVMRP neighbors as peers, regardless of their DVMRP capability.
However, some non-Cisco devices run old versions of DVMRP that cannot prune, so they continuously
receive forwarded packets, wasting bandwidth.

Leaf Nonpruning DVMRP Neighbor
You can prevent the switch from peering (communicating) with a DVMRP neighbor if that neighbor
does not support DVMRP pruning or grafting. To do so, configure the switch (which is a neighbor to the
leaf, nonpruning DVMRP machine) with the ip dvmrp reject-non-pruners interface configuration
command on the interface connected to the nonpruning machine as shown in

when the switch receives DVMRP probe or report message without the prune-capable flag set, the switch
logs a syslog message and discards the message.
