Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

All C-RPs in a PIM-SM domain periodically send Advertisement messages to the same BSR. The BSR can collect the integrated RP-Set.

The c-rp advertisement-interval command sets the interval at which a C-RP sends Advertisement messages to the BSR.

Prerequisites

IPv6 multicast routing has been enabled using the multicast ipv6 routing-enable command in the system view.

Precautions

You can also run the c-rp ipv6-address advertisement-interval interval command in the PIM-IPv6 view to configure the advertisement interval while configuring a C-RP. The c-rp advertisement-interval interval command specifies the global interval. If both the commands are configured, the interval configured by the c-rp ipv6-address advertisement-interval interval command takes effect.

Example

# In the PIM-IPv6 view, set the interval at which a C-RP sends Advertisement messages to 30s.
