Specifying a Bootstrap Router

Using PIM-SM, a Bootstrap Router (BSR) is a PIM-capable router that hosts the

election of the RP from available candidate routers. For each PIM-enabled IP

interface, the administrator can set the preference level for which the local interface

becomes the BSR:

CN 4093(config)# interface ip <Interface number>

CN 4093(config-ip-if)# ip pim cbsr-preference <0 to 255>

CN 4093(config-ip-if)# exit

A value of 255 highly prefers the local interface as a BSR. A value of -1 indicates

that the PIM CBSR preference is not configured on the local interface.
