Table 6-10 Configuring C-BSR
Operation Command
Configure C-BSR
c-bsr Vlan-interface interface-number
hash-mask-len [ priority ]
Remove C-BSR configuration
undo c-bsr
C-BSRs should be configured on the routers in the backbone network. By default, no
C-BSR is configured. The default value of the priority is 0.
Caution:
One router can only be configured with one candidate-BSR. When a new
candidate-BSR is configured on another interface, it will replace the previous one.
6.3.6 Configuring C-RP
In PIM-SM, a shared tree roots at an RP, with one or possibly many multicast groups
mapped to the RP.
Please perform the following configurations in PIM view.
Table 6-11 Configuring C-RP
Operation Command
Configure C-RP
c-rp Vlan-interface interface-number
[ group-policy acl-number | priority
priority-value ]*
Remove C-RP configiration undo c-rp { Vlan-interface interface-number | all }
When configuring a C-RP, if the range of the served multicast groups is not specified, it
will serve all multicast groups. Otherwise, it will serve only those within the specified
range. It is suggested to configure C-RPs on routers over backbone network.
6.3.7 Configuring Static RP
A static RP can be the backup of a dynamic RP, to raise network robusticity.
Please perform the following configurations in PIM view.
