DETAILED STEPS
PurposeCommand or Action
Enables privileged EXEC mode. Enter your password if prompted.enable
Step 1
Example:
Device> enable
Verifies that a default RP is already configured on all PIM devices and the RP
in the sparse-mode network. It was previously configured with the ip pim
rp-address global configuration command.
show running-config
Example:
Device# show running-config
Step 2
This step is not required for spare-dense-mode
environments.
Note
The selected RP should have good connectivity and be available across the
network. Use this RP for the global groups (for example, 224.x.x.x and other
global groups). Do not reconfigure the group address range that this RP serves.
RPs dynamically discovered through Auto-RP take precedence over statically
configured RPs. Assume that it is desirable to use a second RP for the local
groups.
Enters the global configuration mode.configure terminal
Example:
Device# configure terminal
Step 3
Configures another PIM device to be the candidate RP for local groups.
ip pim send-rp-announce interface-id
scope ttl group-list access-list-number
interval seconds
Step 4
•
For interface-id, enter the interface type and number that identifies the
RP address. Valid interfaces include physical ports, port channels, and
VLANs.
