Configuring the switchover to SPT

CAUTION:
If the device is an RP, disabling the switchover to SPT might cause multicast traffic forwarding
failures on the source-side DR. When disabling the switchover to SPT, make sure you fully
understand its impact on your network.
Both the receiver-side DR and RP can monitor the traffic rate of passing-by multicast packets and
thus trigger a switchover from RPT to SPT.

NOTE:
If the multicast source information is learned through MSDP, the device switches to SPT
immediately after it receives the first multicast packet, regardless of the traffic rate threshold.
