and advertises it to all routers in the PIM-SM domain. All the routers use the same Hash algorithm to get

the RP address corresponding to specific multicast groups.
Perform the following configuration on C-BSR routers.

Optional
By default, the C-BSR priority is 64.

NOTE:

About the Hash mask length and C-BSR priority:

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.
