Parameter

Parameter

Description

group-prefix <IPv4Net>

Specifies the range of multicast group that can serve on a C-RP. The value is an IPv4 multicast subnet address in the address/prefix-length format, e.g., 239.0.0.0/8.

cand-bsr-by-vif-name <vif-interface-name>

Specifies a VLAN interface or loopback interface to use as the C-RP.

NOTE:

To avoid frequent protocol changes caused by interface flapping, using loopback interfaces is recommended.

Example

Configure the loopback interface to use as the C-RP in a multicast group.
