rpf-vector destination

Function

The rpf-vector destination command specifies an RPF vector path for a multicast source.

The undo rpf-vector destination command deletes the RPF vector path specified for a multicast source.

By default, no RPF vector path is specified for a multicast source.

Format

rpf-vector destination ip-address masklen mask-length path path-name

undo rpf-vector destination ip-address masklen mask-length path path-name

Parameters
