Usage
Information
First-hop routers use this address by to send register packets on behalf of source multicast hosts. The RP
addresses are stored in the order in which they are entered. The RP is chosen based on a longer prefix
match for a group. The RP selection does not depend on dynamic or static RP assignments.
ip pim rp-candidate
Configure a PIM router to send out a Candidate-RP-Advertisement message to the bootstrap (BS) router or define group
prefixes that are defined with the RP address to PIM BSR.
Syntax
ip pim [vrf vrf-name] rp-candidate {interface [priority] [acl-name]}
