IP
PIM RP-ADDRESS
ip pim rp-address
Overview Use this command to statically configure RP (Rendezvous Point) address for
multicast groups.
Use the no variant of this command to remove a statically configured RP
(Rendezvous Point) address for multicast groups.
Syntax
ip pim rp-address <ip-address>
[<simplerange>|<expandedrange>|<accesslist>] [override]
no ip pim rp-address <ip-address>
[<simplerange>|<expandedrange>| <accesslist>] [override]
Mode Global Configuration
Usage The AlliedWare Plus™ PIM-SM implementation supports multiple static RPs. It also
supports usage of static-RP and BSR mechanism simultaneously. The ip pim
rp-address command is used to statically configure the RP address for multicast
groups.
You need to understand the following information before using this command.
If the RP-address that is configured by the BSR, and the RP-address that is
configured statically, are both available for a group range, then the RP-address
configured through BSR is chosen over the statically configured RP-address.
A single static-RP can be configured for multiple group ranges using Access Lists.
However, configuring multiple static RPs (using ip pim rp-address command)
with the same RP address is not allowed. The static-RP can either be configured for
the whole multicast group range 224.0.0.0/4 (without ACL) or for specific
group ranges (using ACL).
For example, configuring ip pim rp-address 192.168.3.4 will configure static-RP
192.168.3.4 for the default group range 224.0.0.0/4. Configuring i p pim
rp-address 192.168.7.8 grp-list will configure static-RP 192.168.7.8 for all the
group ranges represented by permit filters in grp-list ACL.
If multiple static-RPs are available for a group range, then one with the highest IP
address is chosen.
Parameter Description
<ip-address> IP address of Rendezvous Point, entered in the form A.B.C.D.
<simplerange> <1-99> IP Standard Access-list.
<expandedrange> <1300-1999> IP Standard Access-list (expanded range).
<accesslist> IP extended Access-list name.
override Enables statically defined RPs to override dynamically learned
RPs.
