Step 2
Configures your device to be a candidate RP.
ip pim rp-candidate interface-id [group-list
access-list-number]
Step 3
•
For interface-id, specify the interface whose associated IP address
is advertised as a candidate RP address. Valid interfaces include
physical ports, port channels, and VLANs.
Example:
Device(config)# ip pim rp-candidate
•
(Optional) For group-list access-list-number, enter an IP standard
access list number from 1 to 99. If no group-list is specified, the
device is a candidate RP for all groups.
