.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm map-mbone
|
|
attempts to display all multicast routers that are reachable from the multicast
|
|
router
|
|
.Ar router .
|
|
If not specified on the command line, the default
|
|
.Ar router
|
|
is the local host.
|
|
.Nm
|
|
traverses neighboring multicast routers by sending the
|
|
.Dv ASK_NEIGHBORS
|
|
.Tn IGMP
|
|
message to each router. If this multicast router responds, the version
|
|
number and a list of their neighboring multicast router addresses is
|
|
part of that response. If the responding router has recent multicast
|
|
version number, then
|
|
.Nm
|
|
requests additional information such as metrics, thresholds, and flags from the
|
|
multicast router. For each new occurrence of neighboring multicast router in
|
|
the reply and provided the flooding option has been selected, then
|
|
.Nm
|
|
asks each of this multicast router for a list of neighbors. This search
|
|
for unique routers will continue until no new neighboring multicast routers
|
|
are reported.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options supported by
|
|
.Nm
|
|
are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width XXXdebuglevel
|
|
.It Fl d Ar debuglevel
|
|
This sets the debug level to
|
|
.Ar debuglevel .
|
|
When the debug level is greater than the default value of 0,
|
|
additional debugging messages are printed. Regardless of the debug
|
|
level, an error condition, will always write an error message and will
|
|
cause
|
|
.I map-mbone
|
|
to terminate.
|
|
Non-zero debug levels have the following effects:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "level 3"
|
|
.It level 1
|
|
packet warnings are printed to stderr.
|
|
.It level 2
|
|
all level 1 messages plus notifications down networks are printed to stderr.
|
|
.It level 3
|
|
all level 2 messages plus notifications of all packet
|
|
timeouts are printed to stderr.
|
|
.El
|
|
.It Fl f
|
|
This option enables flooding. Flooding allows
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to perform recursive search
|
|
of neighboring multicast routers and is enabled by default when an
|
|
initial
|
|
.Ar router
|
|
is not specified.
|
|
.It Fl g
|
|
This option enables graphing in GraphEd format.
|
|
.It Fl n
|
|
This option disables the DNS lookup for the multicast routers' names.
|
|
.It Fl r Ar retries
|
|
This options sets the neighbor query retry limit to
|
|
.Ar retries .
|
|
The default is one retry.
|
|
.It Fl t Ar timeout
|
|
This option sets the number of seconds to wait for a neighbor query
|
|
reply before retrying. The default timeout is two seconds.
|
|
.Sh RESTRICTIONS
|
|
.Nm
|
|
must be run as `root'.
