Configure BSR

BSR is the management center of PIMSM network. It is in charge of collecting messages sent

by candidate RPs and broadcast them.

Only one BSR can exist within a network, but more than one C-BSR (Candidate-BSR) can be

configured. In this way, if some BSR goes wrong, it can switch to another. C-BSRs elect BSR

automatically.
