Verifying mrouted Operation
You can use one or more of the following methods to verify mrouted
operation:
• Retrieve the virtual interface table and the multicast routing
table to verify if appropriate virtual interfaces (vifs) are configured.
See “Displaying mrouted Routing Tables” on page 38 for information
on retrieving these tables.
• Retrieve the routing cache table to verify if the routing and cache
information is appropriate for your configuration of mrouted. See
“Displaying mrouted Routing Tables” on page 38 for information on
retrieving this table.
• Examine the syslog file /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log for warning
and error messages that indicate the status of mrouted. Upon
startup, mrouted logs a startup message in the syslog file that
indicates the mrouted version number, such as mrouted version
3.8.
• Issue the following ps (process status) command to search for the
string “mrouted”, using grep, to determine if the mrouted program is
running:
ps -ef | grep mrouted
