R3303-HP HSR6800 Routers IP Multicast Command Reference
378
preferred: Gives priority to the static RP if the static RP conflicts with the dynamic RP. If you do not include
the preferred keyword in your command, the dynamic RP will be given priority, and the static RP takes
effect only if no dynamic RP exists in the network or when the dynamic RP fails.
bidir: Configures the static RP to serve multicast groups in IPv6 BIDIR-PIM. Without this argument, the
static RP serves groups in IPv6 PIM-SM.
Usage guidelines
IPv6 PIM-SM or IPv6 PIM-DM cannot be enabled on an interface that serves as a static RP.
When the IPv6 ACL rule applied on a static RP changes, a new RP must be elected for all IPv6 multicast
groups.
You can configure multiple static RPs by executing this command multiple times. However, if you execute
this command multiple times and specify the same static RP address or reference the same IPv6 ACL rule,
the most recent configuration takes effect. If multiple static RPs have been configured for the same IPv6
multicast group, the one with the highest IPv6 address will be chosen to serve the group.
You can configure up to 50 static RPs on the same device.
Examples
# Configure the interface with an IPv6 address of 2001::2 as a static RP to serve the IPv6 multicast groups
in the address range of FF03::101/64 defined in basic IPv6 ACL 2001, and give priority to this static RP
in the case of static/dynamic RP conflict.
