ip pim rp-address

Use this command to set a static Rendezvous Point (RP) for a multicast group.

Syntax

ip pim rp-address rp-address {group-address group-mask | group-list group-list}
no ip pim rp-address rp-address {group-address group-mask | group-list group-list}

Parameters

rp-address Specifies the IP address of the PIM RP router.
group-address Specifies the multicast group address.
group-mask Specifies the multicast group mask.
group-list group-list Specifies a standard access-list containing one or more multicast groups.

Defaults

None.

Mode

Configuration command.

Usage

For each static RP, groups may be configured either individually or using a group-list. A group-list must exist before it can be used by this command. If a group-list referenced by this command is removed, the configuration will also be removed. Before using a group-list, any groups entered using the group-address and group-mask must be removed.

The “no” form of this command removes the static RP configuration. Groups specified using a group-list may not be removed using the group-address group-mask option; they must be removed using the group-list option.

Example

This example sets a static RP address at 10.0.0.1 for the multicast group at 235.0.0.0 255.0.0.0:

System(su-config)->ip pim rp-address 10.0.0.1 235.0.0.0. 255.0.0.0
