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. RP addresses
learned using BSR take priority over static RP addresses. Without the override option, RPs
advertised by the BSR updates take precedence over the statically configured RPs.
