C-BSR.

No C-BSRs are configured by

Configuring an IPv6 BIDIR-PIM domain border
As the administrative core of an IPv6 BIDIR-PIM domain, the BSR sends the collected RP-Set information
in the form of bootstrap messages to all routers in the IPv6 BIDIR-PIM domain.
An IPv6 BIDIR-PIM domain border is a bootstrap message boundary. Each BSR has its specific service
scope. A number of IPv6 BIDIR-PIM domain border interfaces partition a network into different IPv6
BIDIR-PIM domains. Bootstrap messages cannot cross a domain border in either direction.
Perform the following configuration on routers that you want to configure as the IPv6 BIDIR-PIM domain
border.

By default, no IPv6 BIDIR-PIM
domain border is configured.
Configuring C-BSR parameters globally
In each IPv6 BIDIR-PIM domain, a unique BSR is elected from C-BSRs. The C-RPs in the IPv6 BIDIR-PIM
domain send advertisement messages to the BSR. The BSR summarizes the advertisement messages to
form an RP-set and advertises it to all routers in the IPv6 BIDIR-PIM domain. All the routers use the same
hash algorithm to get the RP address corresponding to specific multicast groups.
Perform the following configuration on C-BSR routers.
