Brocade Communications Systems Upgrade Pef IPMC5000PEF IPMC5000PEF Manual De Usuario

The following table describes the parameters of the show ip pim anycast-rp command:

Display of show ip pim anycast-rp

Number of Anycast RP: The Number of Anycast RP specifies the number of Anycast RP sets in the multicast

domain.

Anycast RP:

The Anycast RP address specifies a shared RP address used among multiple PIM
routers.

ACL ID:

The ACL ID specifies the ACL ID assigned.

ACL Name

The ACL Name specifies the name of the Anycast RP set.

ACL Filter

The ACL Filter specifies the ACL filter state SET or UNSET.

Peer List

The Peer List specifies host addresses that are permitted in the Anycast RP set.

NOTE
MSDP and Anycast RP do not interoperate. If transitioning from MSDP to Anycast RP or vice versa, all
RPs in the network must be configured for the same method of RP peering; either Anycast RP or
MSDP.

Static multicast routes

Configure static multicast routes to control the network paths, administrative distance, and precedence
for multicast routes.

Static multicast routes allow you to control the network path used by multicast traffic. Static multicast
routes are especially useful when the unicast and multicast topologies of a network are different. By
configuring static multicast routes you don't have to make the topologies similar.

In IP multicasting, source IP addresses are unicast addresses while destination IP addresses are
multicast (group) addresses. Therefore, in IP multicasting, a route lookup is done for source IP address,
rather than its destination IP address.

You can configure more than one static multicast route. The device always uses the most specific route
that matches a multicast source address. Thus, if you want to configure a multicast static route for a
specific multicast source and also configure another multicast static route for all other sources, you can
configure two static routes

Configure the distance keyword in the ip mroute command to specify the administrative distance,
which the device uses to determine the best path for a route. When comparing multiple paths for a
route, the device prefers the path with the lower administrative distance. To ensure that the default
static route is used, configure a low administrative distance value. However, the device prefers directly
connected routes over other routes, no matter what the administrative distance.
