PIM Sparse

Configuration considerations:
• The Static RP has higher precedence over RP learnt from the BSR.
• There is a limit of 64 static RPs in the systems.
Configuring an ACL based RP assignment
To configure an ACL based RP assignment, enter commands such as the following.
Brocade(config)# router pim
Brocade(config-pim-router)# rp-address 130.1.1.1 acl1
Syntax: [no] rp-address ip_address [acl_name_or_id] [vrf vrf-name]
Use the ip address parameter to specify the IP address of the device you want to designate as an
RP device.
Use the acl name or id (optional) parameter to specify the name or ID of the ACL that specifies
which multicast groups use this RP.
Use the vrf parameter to specify a VRF instance.
Displaying the static RP
Use the show ip pim rp-set command to display static RP and the associated group ranges.
Brocade(config)# show ip pim rp-set
Static RP and associated group ranges
-------------------------------------
Static RP count: 4
130.1.1.1
120.1.1.1
120.2.1.1
124.1.1.1
Number of group prefixes Learnt from BSR: 0
No RP-Set present.
Use the show ip pim rp-map command to display all current multicast group addresses to RP
address mapping.
Brocade(config)# show ip pim rp-map
Number of group-to-RP mappings: 5
Group address RP address
----------------------------------------
1 230.0.0.1 100.1.1.1
2 230.0.0.2 100.1.1.1
3 230.0.0.3 100.1.1.1
4 230.0.0.4 100.1.1.1
5 230.0.0.5 100.1.1.1
Route selection precedence for multicast
The route-precedence command lets you specify a precedence table that dictates how routes are
selected for multicast.
Configuration considerations:
PIM must be enabled at the global level.
