OmniSwitch 7700/7800/8800 Advanced Routing Configuration Guide

To view current DVMRP interfaces, including their operational status and assigned metrics, use the 
show ip dvmrp interface command. For example:

Note. The show ip dvmrp interface command displays information for all multicast-capable interfaces 
(i.e., DVMRP).

To globally enable DVMRP on the switch, enter the following command:

-> ip dvmrp status enable

The following command will globally disable DVMRP on the switch:

-> ip dvmrp status disable

To view current global DVMRP enable/disable status, as well as additional global DVMRP settings, use 
the show ip dvmrp command. For example:

-> show ip dvmrp interface

Interface Name       Vlan   Metric  Admin-Status  Oper-Status

---------------------+-----+--------+-------------+-------------

vlan-2

2 

3         Enabled      Disabled

The corresponding 

interface is configured 

for DVMRP (i.e., it is 

DVMRP-enabled).

Current assigned metric 

is shown as 3.

The interface is 

operationally down 

because there are no 

ports operationally 

up in VLAN 2.

-> show ip dvmrp
