Usage notes The AlliedWare Plus PIM-SM implementation supports multiple static RPs. It also
supports usage of static RP and the BSR (Bootstrap Router) 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 configured by the BSR, and the statically configured RP address
are both available for a group range, then the RP address configured through the
BSR is chosen over the statically configured RP address, unless the ‘override’
parameter is specified, in which case, the static RP will be chosen.
After configuration, the RP address is inserted into a static RP group tree based on
the configured group ranges. For each group range, multiple static RPs are
maintained in a linked list. This list is sorted in a descending order of IP addresses.
When selecting static RPs for a group range, the first element (which is the static RP
with highest IP address) is chosen.
RP address deletion is handled by removing the static RP from all the existing
group ranges and recalculating the RPs for existing TIB states if required.
NOTE: A unique RP address may only be specified once as a static RP.
