the RP address corresponding to specific multicast groups.

•
You can configure these parameters at three levels: global configuration level, global scope zone
level, and admin-scope zone level.
•
The value of these parameters configured at the global scope zone level or admin-scope zone
level have preference over the global values.
•
If you do not configure these parameters at the global scope zone level or admin-scope zone
level, the corresponding global values will be used.
For configuration of C-BSR parameters for an admin-scope zone and global scope zone, see
Configuring C-BSRs for each admin-scope zone and the global-scope zone
Configuring C-BSR timers
The BSR election winner multicasts its own IP address and RP-Set information through bootstrap messages
within the entire zone it serves. The BSR floods bootstrap messages throughout the network at the interval
of BS (BSR state) period. Any C-BSR that receives a bootstrap message retains the RP-set for the length of
BS timeout, during which no BSR election takes place. If the BSR state times out and no bootstrap
message is received from the BSR, a new BSR election process is triggered among the C-BSRs.
Perform the following configuration on C-BSR routers.
