Command Reference Guide – Multicast Chapter 5 PIM Configuration Commands
5-21
acl-number: Basic ACL, used to control the range of multicast group served by static RP,
which ranges from 2000 to 2999. If an ACL is not specified upon configuration, static
RP will serve all multicast groups; if an ACL is specified, static RP will only serve the
multicast group passing the ACL.
Description
Use the static-rp command to configure static RP.
Use the undo static-rp command to remove the configuration.
Static RP function as the backup of dynamic RP so as to improve the network
robusticity. If the RP elected by BSR mechanism is valid, static RP will not work. All
routers in the PIM domain must be configured with this command and be specified with
the same RP address.
The new configuration overwrites the old one if you execute the command for a second
time.
Related command: display pim rp-info.
