Configuring a Rendezvous Point
You must have a rendezvous point (RP), if the interface is in sparse-dense mode and if you want to handle
the group as a sparse group. You can use several methods, as described in these sections:
• Manual assignment
• As a standalone, Cisco-proprietary protocol separate from PIMv1
• Using a standards track protocol in the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)
You can use Auto-RP, BSR, or a combination of both, depending on the PIM version that you are running
Note
and the types of routers in your network. For information about working with different PIM versions in
your network, see
IP Multicast Routing Configuration Guide, Cisco IOS XE Release 3SE (Catalyst 3650 Switches)
