Output...	What it displays...
BSR Address	IP address of the bootstrap router.

BSR Priority	Priority as set by the ip pim bsr-candidate command.
BSR Expire	Period in which the next bootstrap message is due from this BSR (in hours:minutes:seconds). After 24 hours, format will change into days:hours and, after a week, will change into weeks:days.
Candidate BSR Address	The (unicast) address that the local router will use to advertise itself as a Candidate-BSR.

Priority	The priority value for the local router as a Candidate-BSR for this zone. Numerically higher values for this object indicate higher priorities.
Elected BSR	Whether the local router is the elected BSR for this zone. If the value is false, the Next BSM timer does not appear in the output.
Next BSM	The time remaining before the local router next originates a Bootstrap message for this zone.
