V. Configuring global C-BSR parameters
The BSR election winner advertises its own IP address and RP-set information
throughout the region it serves through bootstrap messages. The BSR floods bootstrap
messages throughout the network periodically. Any C-BSR that receives a bootstrap
message maintains the BSR state for a configurable period of time (BSR state timeout),
during which no BSR election takes place. When the BSR state times out, a new BSR
election process will be triggered among the C-BSRs.
Follow these steps to configure global C-BSR parameters:
