Configuring C-BSRs for each admin-scope zone and the global-scope zone
In a network where administrative scoping is enabled, group-range-specific BSRs are elected from C-
BSRs. C-RPs in the network send advertisement messages to the specific BSR. The BSR summarizes the
advertisement messages to form an RP-set and advertises it to all routers in the specific admin-scope
zone. All the routers use the same hash algorithm to get the RP address that corresponds to the specific
multicast group.
Configure C-BSRs for each admin-scope zone and the global-scope zone.
