•
hash-mask-len —The length of a mask that is to be ANDed with the group
•
address before the hash function is called. All groups with the same seed
hash correspond to the same RP. For example, if this value is 24, only the
first 24 bits of the group addresses matter. This allows you to get one RP
for multiple groups. (Range 0–128 bits).
priority —The priority of the candidate BSR. The BSR with the higher
•
priority is preferred. If the priority values are the same, the router with the
higher IP address is the BSR. (Range: 0–255).
Default Configuration
The router will not announce its candidacy by default.
The default hash mask length is 126 bits.
The default priority is 0.
