Field Description
Number of group prefixes The number of PIM Sparse group prefixes for which the RP is responsible.
Group prefix Indicates the multicast groups for which the RP listed by the previous field is a
candidate RP.
RP <num> Indicates the RP number. If there are multiple RPs in the PIM Sparse domain, a
line of information for each of them is listed, and they are numbered in ascending
numerical order.
priority The RP priority of the candidate RP. During the election process, the candidate RP
with the highest priority is elected as the RP.

within the holdtime, the BSR removes that router from its list of candidate RPs.
