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-rp-by-vif-addr <IP-address>

Specifies the IP address of 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 IP address of a VLAN interface or loopback interface to use as the C-RP in a multicast group to 2.2.2.2.
