Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

To view information about static RPs and bootstrap device (BSR) RPs, run the display pim rp-info command. The command output includes the RP address, RP priority, address of the group that the RP serves, and the length of time the RP has been Up.

Precautions

If neither vpn-instance nor all-instance is specified, the command displays information about RPs in the public network instance.

Example

The actual command output varies according to the device. The command output here is only an example.

# Display RP information of all multicast groups in the public network instance.

<HUAWEI> display pim rp-info
 VPN-Instance: public net
 PIM-SM BSR RP Number:1
 Group/MaskLen: 224.0.0.0/4
     RP: 10.2.2.2 (local)
     Priority: 0
     Uptime: 03:01:36
     Expires: 00:02:29

Item	Description
PIM-SM BSR RP Number	Number of PIM-SM BSR RPs.
RP	RP address ("local" indicates a local interface) RP addresses must be the same on the devices that serve the same multicast group. If two or more different RP addresses exist, troubleshoot faults as follows: In static RP mode, run the static-rp command on all the devices to configure the same RP address. In dynamic RP mode, see Step 4 in the section "An RPT Fails to Forward Data on a PIM-SM Network" in VRP Troubleshooting - Multicast.
VPN-Instance	Instance in which information about RPs is displayed.
Group/MaskLen	Group address and mask length.
Priority	Priority of the RP.
Uptime	Length of time the RP has been Up.
Expires	Remaining time before the RP times out.
