interfaces <interface> ip multicast ttl-threshold <ttl>

Sets the time-to-live (TTL) threshold for multicast packets.

set interfaces interface ip multicast ttl-threshold ttl
delete interfaces interface ip multicast ttl-threshold
show interfaces interface ip multicast ttl-threshold

The TTL for multicast packets is 0. The default value 0 means that all multicast packets are forwarded out to the interface.

interface
The type keyword and identifier of an interface. For detailed keywords and arguments that can be specified as interfaces, refer to Supported Dataplane Interfaces.
ttl
The TTL value is the hop count. The range is 0 through 255. The default is 0.

interfaces interface {
    ip {
        multicast {
            ttl-threshold ttl 
        }
    }
}

Use this command to configure the TTL threshold for multicast packets being forwarded from the specified interface. Only multicast packets with a TTL value greater than the threshold are forwarded.

Use the set form of this command to configure the multicast TTL value.

Use the delete form of this command to restore the default TTL value for multicast.

Use the show form of this command to show multicast TTL configuration.
