Configuring Candidate-Rps; Configuring Static Rp - H3C S9500 Series Operation Manual

Operation Manual – Multicast Protocol
H3C S9500 Series Routing Switches
Caution:
One router can only be configured with one candidate-BSR. When a candidate-BSR is
configured on another interface, it will replace the previous configuration.

7.2.6 Configuring Candidate-RPs

In PIM-SM, the shared tree built by multicast routing data is rooted at the RP. There is a
mapping from a multicast group to an RP. A multicast group can be mapped to only one
RP. Different multicast groups can be mapped to the same RP or different RPs.
Perform the following configuration in PIM view.

candidate-RP configured
When configuring RP, if the range of the served multicast group is not specified, the RP
will serve all multicast groups. Otherwise, the range of the served multicast group is the
multicast group in the specified range. It is suggested to configure Candidate RP on the
backbone router.

7.2.7 Configuring Static RP

To enhance network robustness, static RP serves as the backup of dynamic RP
