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.

prefixes that are defined with the RP address to PIM BSR, configure a PIM router.
