.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
program
is an implementation of the Distance-Vector Multicast Routing
Protocol (DVMRP), an earlier version of which is specified in RFC-1075.
It maintains topological knowledge via a distance-vector routing protocol
(like RIP, described in RFC-1058), upon which it implements a multicast
datagram forwarding algorithm called Reverse Path Multicasting.
.PP
.I Mrouted
.Pp
.Nm

rooted at the subnet on which the datagram originates. The multicast
delivery tree may be thought of as a broadcast delivery tree that has

are not forwarded along those branches which have no listeners of the
multicast group. The IP time-to-live of a multicast datagram can be
used to limit the range of multicast datagrams.
.PP
.Pp
In order to support multicasting among subnets that are separated by (unicast)
routers that do not support IP multicasting,
.I mrouted
.Nm
includes support for
"tunnels", which are virtual point-to-point links between pairs of
.IR mrouted s
located anywhere in an internet. IP multicast packets are encapsulated for
transmission through tunnels, so that they look like normal unicast datagrams
to intervening routers and subnets. The encapsulation
is added on entry to a tunnel, and stripped off
on exit from a tunnel.
By default, the packets are encapsulated using the IP-in-IP protocol
(IP protocol number 4).
Older versions of
.I mrouted

.Dq tunnels ,
which are virtual point-to-point links between pairs of
.Nm
programs located anywhere in an internet. IP multicast packets are
encapsulated for transmission through tunnels, so that they look like
normal unicast datagrams to intervening routers and subnets. The
encapsulation is added on entry to a tunnel, and stripped off on exit
from a tunnel. By default, the packets are encapsulated using the
IP-in-IP protocol (IP protocol number 4). Older versions of
.Nm
tunneled using IP source routing, which puts a heavy load on some
types of routers.
This version supports IP source route tunnelling only for backwards
compatibility.
.PP
.Pp
The tunnelling mechanism allows
.I mrouted
.Nm
to establish a virtual internet, for
the purpose of multicasting only, which is independent of the physical
internet, and which may span multiple Autonomous Systems. This capability
is intended for experimental support of internet multicasting only, pending
widespread support for multicast routing by the regular (unicast) routers.
.I Mrouted
.Nm
suffers from the well-known scaling problems of any distance-vector
routing protocol, and does not (yet) support hierarchical multicast routing.
.PP
.I Mrouted
.Pp
.Nm
handles multicast routing only; there may or may not be unicast routing
software running on the same machine as
.IR mrouted .
.Nm mrouted .
With the use of tunnels, it
is not necessary for
.I mrouted
.Nm
to have access to more than one physical subnet
in order to perform multicast forwarding.

.SH INVOCATION
.PP
If no "\-d" option is given, or if the debug level is specified as 0,
.I mrouted
detaches from the invoking terminal. Otherwise, it remains attached to the
invoking terminal and responsive to signals from that terminal. If "\-d" is
given with no argument, the debug level defaults to 2. Regardless of the
debug level,
.I mrouted
.Pp
If no
.Fl d
option is given, or if the debug level is specified as 0,
.Nm
detaches from its controlling terminal. Otherwise, it remains attached to the
terminal and responsive to signals.
.Pp
The
.Nm
program accepts the following command-line options:
.Bl -tag -width XXXdebuglevel
.It Fl c Ar config
This option specifies an alternate configuration file location as
.Ar config .
The default location is
.Pa /etc/mrouted.conf .
.It Fl d Ar debuglevel
This option sets the debuging level to
.Ar debuglevel .
Regardless of the debug level,
.Nm
always writes warning and error messages to the system
log demon. Non-zero debug levels have the following effects:
.IP "level 1"
.Bl -tag -width "level 3"
.It level 1
all syslog'ed messages are also printed to stderr.
.IP "level 2"
all level 1 messages plus notifications of "significant"
.It level 2
all level 1 messages plus notifications of
.Dq significant
events are printed to stderr.
.IP "level 3"
.It level 3
all level 2 messages plus notifications of all packet
arrivals and departures are printed to stderr.

.Sh CONFIGURATION
.Nm
automatically configures itself to forward on all multicast-capable
interfaces, i.e., interfaces that have the IFF_MULTICAST flag set (excluding
the loopback "interface"), and it finds other
.IR mrouted s

via those interfaces. To override the default configuration, or to add
tunnel links to other
.IR mrouted s,
configuration commands may be placed in
/etc/mrouted.conf (or an alternative file, specified by the "\-c" option).

programs, configuration commands may be placed in

One note about the configuration commands--all the phyint and tunnel
command options must be on a single line except for the boundary option
which may begin on a separate line. A single phyint or tunnel command may
have multiple boundary options.
.PP
.Pp
The phyint command can be used to disable multicast routing on the physical
interface identified by local IP address <local-addr>, or to associate a
non-default metric or threshold with the specified physical interface.
The local IP address <local-addr> may be alternatively replaced by the
interface name (e.g le0) for the phyint command only.

Phyint commands must precede tunnel commands.
.PP
.Pp
The tunnel command can be used to establish a tunnel link between local
IP address <local-addr> and remote IP address <remote-addr>, and to associate
a non-default metric or threshold with that tunnel. The tunnel must be set
up in the mrouted.conf files of both routers before it can be used.
For backwards compatibility with older
.IR mrouted s,
the srcrt keyword specifies
.Nm
programs, the srcrt keyword specifies

.PP
.Pp
The cache_lifetime is a value that determines the amount of time that a
cached multicast route stays in kernel before timing out. The value of this
entry should lie between 300 (5 min) and 86400 (1 day). It defaults to 300.
.PP
.Pp
The pruning <off/on> option is provided for
.IR mrouted
.Nm
to act as a non-pruning router. It is also possible to start
.Ir mrouted
in a non-pruning mode using the "-p" option on the command line. It is
expected that a router would be configured in this manner for test
purposes only. The default mode is pruning enabled.
.PP
The metric is the "cost" associated with sending a datagram on the given
.Nm
in a non-pruning mode using the
.Fl p
flag on the command line. It is expected that a router would be
configured in this manner for test purposes only. The default mode is
pruning enabled.
.Pp
The metric is the
.Dq cost
associated with sending a datagram on the given
interface or tunnel; it may be used to influence the choice of routes.
The metric defaults to 1. Metrics should be kept as small as possible,
because
.I mrouted
.Nm
cannot route along paths with a sum of metrics greater
than 31.
.LP
.Pp
The threshold is the minimum IP time-to-live required for a multicast datagram
to be forwarded to the given interface or tunnel. It is used to control the
scope of multicast datagrams. (The TTL of forwarded packets is only compared
to the threshold, it is not decremented by the threshold. Every multicast
router decrements the TTL by 1.) The default threshold is 1.
.LP
.Pp
In general, all
.IR mrouted s
connected to a particular subnet or tunnel should
.Nm mrouted
programs connected to a particular subnet or tunnel should
use the same metric and threshold for that subnet or tunnel.
.PP
.Pp
The rate_limit option allows the network administrator to specify a
certain bandwidth in Kbits/second which would be allocated to multicast
traffic.
.PP
.Pp
The boundary option allows an interface
to be configured as an administrative boundary for the specified
scoped address. Packets belonging to this address will not
be forwarded on a scoped interface.
.PP
.I Mrouted
.Pp
The
.Nm
program
will not initiate execution if it has fewer than two enabled vifs,
where a vif (virtual interface) is either a physical multicast-capable
interface or a tunnel. It will log a warning if all of its vifs are
tunnels; such an
.I mrouted
.Nm
configuration would be better replaced by more
direct tunnels (i.e., eliminate the middle man).

maintains a record of the number of prunes received from neighbouring
routers for a particular source and group. If there are no members of
a multicast group on any downward link of the multicast tree for a
