Configuring a BIDIR-PIM domain border
As the administrative core of a BIDIR-PIM domain, the BSR sends the collected RP-Set information in the
form of bootstrap messages to all routers in the BIDIR-PIM domain.
A BIDIR-PIM domain border is a bootstrap message boundary. Each BSR has its specific service scope.
A number of BIDIR-PIM domain border interfaces partition a network into different BIDIR-PIM domains.
Bootstrap messages cannot cross a domain border in either direction.
Perform the following configuration on routers that you want to configure as the PIM domain border.
To configure a BIDIR-PIM domain border:

Configuring global C-BSR parameters
In each BIDIR-PIM domain, a unique BSR is elected from C-BSRs. The C-RPs in the BIDIR-PIM domain send
advertisement messages to the BSR. The BSR summarizes the advertisement messages to form an RP-set
and advertises it to all routers in the BIDIR-PIM domain. All the routers use the same hash algorithm to get
the RP address corresponding to specific multicast groups.
The following rules apply to the hash mask length and C-BSR priority:
•
You configure the hash mask length and C-BSR priority globally, in an admin-scoped zone, and in
the global-scoped zone.
The values configured in the global-scoped zone or admin-scoped zone have preference over the
•
global values.
If you do not configure these parameters in the global-scoped zone or admin-scoped zone, the
•
corresponding global values will be used.
For configuration of C-BSR parameters for an admin-scoped zone and global-scoped zone, see
