no ipv6 pim anycast-rp self-rp-address identify this router when communicating with
other RP.(necessary)
the effect of self-rp-address refers to two
respects:
1 Once this router (as a RP) receives the register
message from a DR unicast, it needs to forward
the register message to all the other RP in the
network, notifying them of the state of source
(S.G). While forwarding the register message,
this router will change the source address of it
into self-rp-address.
2 Once this router(as a RP) receives a register
message from other RP unicast, such as a
register message whose destination is the
self-rp-address of this router, it will create (S,G)
state and send back a register-terminating
message, whose destination address is the
source address of the register message.
Pay attention: self-rp-address has to be the
address of a three-layer interface on this router,
but the configuration is allowed to be done with
the absence of the interface. The self-rp-address
should be unique.
No operation will cancel the self-rp-address
which is used to communicate with other RP by
this router.
(3) Configure other-rp-address (other RP communication addresses)
Command Explanation
Global Configuration Mode
ipv6 pim anycast-rp <anycast-rp-addr>
no ipv6 pim anycast-rp <anycast-rp-addr>
>
Configure anycast-rp-addr on this router (as a
RP). This unicast address is actually the RP
address configured on multiple RP in the network,
in accordance with the address of RP candidate
interface (or Loopback interface).
The effect of anycast-rp-addr includes:
1 Although more than one anycast-rp-addr
addresses are allowed to be configured, only the
one having the same address with the currently
configured RP candidate address will take effect.
Only after that, can the other-rp-address in
accordance with this anycast-rp-addr take effect.
2 The configuration is allowed to be done with the
