NAME
     mrinfo - displays configuration info from a multicast router

SYNOPSIS
     mrinfo [-d debug_level] [-r retry_count] [-t timeout_count]
	    multicast_router

DESCRIPTION
     mrinfo attempts to display the configuration information from the
     specified multicast_router.

     mrinfo uses the ASK_NEIGHBORS IGMP message to query the specified
     multicast router.	If the router responds, the version number and a list
     of their neighboring multicast router addresses is part of the response.
     If the responding router has a recent multicast version number, then
     mrinfo requests additional information such as metrics, thresholds, and
     flags from the multicast router.  Once the specified multicast router
     responds, the configuration is displayed to the standard output.

     The options are as follows:

     -d debug_level    sets the debug level.  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 cause mrinfo to terminate.  Non-zero debug levels
		       have the following effects (printed to stderr):

			     1	packet warnings.
			     2	all level 1 messages plus notifications of
				down networks.
			     3	all level 2 messages plus notifications of all
				packet timeouts.

     -r retry_count    sets the neighbor query retry limit.  The default is to
		       do 3 retries.

     -t timeout_count  sets the number of seconds to wait for a neighbor query
		       reply.  The default timeout is 4 seconds.

EXAMPLES
     # mrinfo mbone.phony.dom.net
     127.148.176.10 (mbone.phony.dom.net) [version 3.3]:
      127.148.176.10 -> 0.0.0.0 (?) [1/1/querier]
      127.148.176.10 -> 127.0.8.4 (mbone2.phony.dom.net) [1/45/tunnel]
      127.148.176.10 -> 105.1.41.9 (momoney.com) [1/32/tunnel/down]
      127.148.176.10 -> 143.192.152.119 (mbone.dipu.edu) [1/32/tunnel]

     For each neighbor of the queried multicast router, the IP of the queried
     router is displayed, followed by the IP and name of the neighbor.	In
     square brackets the metric (cost of connection) and threshold (multicast
     ttl) is displayed.	 If the queried multicast router has a newer version
     number, the type (tunnel, srcrt) and status (disabled, down) of the
     connection is displayed.
