Displaying candidate RP information
To display candidate RP information, enter the show ipv6 rp-candidate command at any CLI level.
This example shows information displayed on a device that is a candidate RP. The following
example shows the message displayed on a device that is not a candidate RP.
Brocade# show ipv6 pim rp-candidate
This system is not a Candidate-RP.
Syntax: show ipv6 pim [vrf vrf-name] rp-candidate
The vrf parameter allows you to display IPv6 candidate RP information for the VRF instance
identified by the vrf-name variable.
TABLE 34 Output from the show ipv6 pim bsr command
Field Description
BSR address The IPv6 address of the interface configured as the IPv6 PIM Sparse Bootstrap
Router (BSR).
Uptime The amount of time the BSR has been running.
NOTE: This field appears only if this device is the BSR.
BSR priority The priority assigned to the interface for use during the BSR election process.
During BSR election, the priorities of the candidate BSRs are compared and the
interface with the highest BSR priority becomes the BSR.
Hash mask length The number of significant bits in the IPv6 multicast group comparison mask. This
mask determines the IPv6 multicast group numbers for which the device can be a
BSR. The default is 32 bits, which allows the device to be a BSR for any valid IPv6
multicast group number.
NOTE: This field appears only if this device is a candidate BSR.
Next bootstrap message in Indicates how many seconds will pass before the BSR sends its next Bootstrap
message.
NOTE: This field appears only if this device is the BSR.
Next
Candidate-RP-advertisement
message in Indicates how many seconds will pass before the BSR sends its next candidate
RP advertisement message.
NOTE: This field appears only if this device is a candidate BSR.
RP Indicates the IPv6 address of the Rendezvous Point (RP).
NOTE: This field appears only if this device is a candidate BSR.
group prefixes Indicates the multicast groups for which the RP listed by the previous field is a
candidate RP.
NOTE: This field appears only if this device is a candidate BSR.
Candidate-RP-advertisement
period Indicates how frequently the BSR sends candidate RP advertisement messages.
NOTE: This field appears only if this device is a candidate BSR.
