Usage Guidelines
•
Use the no form of this command to remove the association of the device as a C-RP for a particular
multicast group.
•
The specified rp_address must belong to a PIM enabled interface.
•
Only one RP address is supported per switch. If multiple candidate-RP entries are defined, they must
specify the same rp-address.
•
The priority and the interval values are used by the switch. If they are modified for one entry, the
switch will modify these for all the candidate-rp entries.
•
This command is supported only in the sparse mode.
