mappings between IPv6 multicast groups and RPs. The BSR then encapsulates the RP-set in the bootstrap

messages it periodically originates and floods the bootstrap messages (BSMs) to the entire IPv6 PIM-SM
domain.

Figure 103 BSR and C-RPs

Based on the information in the RP-sets, all routers in the network can calculate the location of the

corresponding RPs based on the following rules:

1.

The C-RP with the highest priority wins.

2.

If all the C-RPs have the same priority, their hash values are calculated through the hashing
algorithm. The C-RP with the largest hash value wins.

3.

If all the C-RPs have the same priority and hash value, the C-RP has the highest IP address wins.

The hashing algorithm used for RP calculation is "Value (G, M, C

i

) = (1103515245 * ( (1103515245 * (G

& M) + 12345) XOR C

i

) + 12345) mod 2

31

".

Table 25 Values in the hashing algorithm

Value Description

Value

Hash value.

G

The digest from the exclusive-or (XOR) operation between the 32-bit segments of the IPv6
multicast group address. For example, if the IPv6 multicast address is
FF0E:C20:1A3:63::101, G = 0xFF0E0C20 XOR 0x01A30063 XOR 0x00000000

XOR 0x00000101.

M

Hash mask length.

C

i

The digest from the exclusive-or (XOR) operation between the 32-bit segments of the C-RP
IPv6 address. For example, if the IPv6 address of the C-RP is 3FFE:B00:C18:1::10, C

i

=

0x3FFE0B00 XOR 0x0C180001 XOR 0x00000000 XOR 0x00000010.

&

Logical operator of "and."

XOR

Logical operator of "exclusive-or."

mod

Modulo operator, which gives the remainder of an integer division.
