Parameter

bsr-priority <bsr-priority>

The value is an integer that ranges from 0 to 255. The default value is 1.


Usage Guidelines

When multiple C-BSRs take part in the BSR election in the PIM-SM domain, the priority and IP address of the C-BSRs are used to in the BSR election process:

  1. If the C-BSRs have different priorities, the C-BSR with the highest priority (largest priority value) is elected as the BSR.
  2. If the C-BSRs have the same priority, the C-BSR with the largest IP address is elected as the BSR.


Example

  • Configure the multicast scope zone of a C-BSR to 239.0.0.0/8, and set the priority of the C-BSR to 10.
