Syntax
static-rp rp-address [ acl-number ]
undo static-rp
View
PIM view
Parameters
rp-address: Static RP address. It must be a legal unicast IP address.
acl-number: Specifies a basic ACL, used to control the range of multicast groups to be served by the
static RP. The effective range is 2000 to 2999. If no ACL is specified in the command, the static RP will
serve all multicast groups; otherwise, the static RP will serve only the multicast groups passing the ACL
filtering.
Description
Use the static-rp command to configure a static RP.
Use the undo static-rp command to remove the static RP configuration.
A static RP functions as a backup for the dynamically elected RP to improve network robustness. When
the RP elected through the BSR mechanism functions, the static RP does not take effect. The same RP
address must be configured on all the devices in the PIM domain.
The new configuration overwrites the existing one if you execute the command for a second time.
Related commands: display pim rp-info.
Examples
# Configure the device that has an interface address of 10.110.0.6 as a static RP that will serve only the
multicast groups in the range of 225.0.0.0 to 225.255.255.255.
