Configuring a Static RP and Allowing Backward Compatibility
When PIM is configured in sparse mode, you must choose one or more routers to operate as a rendezvous
point (RP) for a multicast group. An RP is a single common root placed at a chosen point of a shared distribution
tree. An RP can either be configured statically in each router, or learned through Auto-RP or BSR.
This task configures a static RP. For more information about RPs, see the

Purpose
Configures the Rendezvous point and assigns an
RP to multicast groups.
The RP mechanism can be static,
Note
auto-rp, or BSR.
Sets VRF in which the interface operates.
Configures ipv4 address-family for mvpn and
enters the address family command mode.
Assigns a given routing policy to an RPF
topology table.
