Configures your switch to be a candidate BSR.
ip pim bsr-candidate interface-id
hash-mask-length [priority]
Step 2
•
For interface-id, enter the interface on this switch from which the
BSR address is derived to make it a candidate. This interface must
Example:
Switch(config)# ip pim bsr-candidate
be enabled with PIM. Valid interfaces include physical ports, port
channels, and VLANs.
gigabitethernet 1/0/3 28 100
•
For hash-mask-length, specify the mask length (32 bits maximum)
that is to be ANDed with the group address before the hash function
is called. All groups with the same seed hash correspond to the same
RP. For example, if this value is 24, only the first 24 bits of the group
addresses matter.
•
(Optional) For priority, enter a number from 0 to 255. The BSR with
the larger priority is preferred. If the priority values are the same, the
device with the highest IP address is selected as the BSR. The default
is 0.
To remove this device as a candidate BSR, use the no ip pim
bsr-candidate global configuration command.
