set protocols pimsm4 static-rps rp group-prefix rp-priority

The set protocols pimsm4 static-rps rp group-prefix rp-priority command configures the priority of the specified RP router.

Command Syntax

set protocols pimsm4 static-rps rp <rp-address> group-prefix <IPv4Net> rp-priority <rp-priority>

Parameter

Parameter	Description
rp <rp-address>	Specifies address of a static RP. The address is in dotted decimal notation.
group-prefix <IPv4Net>	Specifies the group prefix address served by the RP. The value is in the form of an IP address and prefix-length in the address/prefix-length format.
rp-priority <rp-priority>	Specifies the priority of the static RP in a multicast group. Smaller value means higher priority. The value is an integer that ranges from 0 to 255. The default value is 192.

Usage Guidelines

A PIM-SM router must either run the PIM-SM bootstrap mechanism to elect a dynamic RP, or have some RPs configured as static RP settings.

When both static RP and dynamic RP are configured, PIM routers will elect an RP from multiple C-RPs and the static RPs following these rules:

The C-RP or static RP with highest priority wins.
If multiple C-RPs or static RPs have the same priority, the C-RP or static RP with the largest hash value wins.
If all the preceding factors are the same, the C-RP or static RP with the largest address wins.
