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>
<other-rp-addr>
no ipv6 pim anycast-rp <anycast-rp-addr>
<other-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
absence of the interface in accordance with the
anycast-rp-addr. Configure on this router (as a
RP) the other-rp-addresses of other RP
communicating with it. This unicast address
identifies other RP and is used in the
communication with local routers. The effect of
other-rp-address refers to two respects:
1 Once this router (as a RP) receives the register
message from a DR unicast, it should forward it to
other RP in the network to notify all the RP in the
network of the source (S.G) state. While
forwarding, the router will change the destination
address of the register message into
other-rp-address.
2 Multiple other-rp-addresses can be configured in
accordance with one anycast-rp-addr, Once the
register message from a DR is received, it should
be forwarded to all of this RP one by one.
No operation will cancel other-rp-address
communicating with this router.
