Adjusting C-BSR Parameters

You can adjust the Candidate-BSR (C-BSR) parameters of the BootStrap router (BSR) administrative domain and the global domain as required.

Context

Perform the following steps on all C-BSRs:

The C-BSR configuration involves three cases:

  • Global configuration: For global configuration, see Adjusting Control Parameters of the C-RP and C-BSR. It is valid in the global domain and each BSR administrative domain.

  • Configuration in a BSR administrative domain: Because the configuration in a BSR administrative domain takes precedence over the global configuration, the global configuration is used when the configuration in a BSR administrative domain is not done.

  • Configuration in the global domain: Because the configuration in the global domain takes precedence over the global configuration, the global configuration is used when the configuration in the global domain is not done.

Procedure

  • Configuration in a BSR Administrative Domain
    1. Access the system view.

      system-view

    2. Access the PIM view.

      pim [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]

    3. Set C-BSR parameters.

      c-bsr group group-address { mask | mask-length } [ hash-length hash-length | priority priority ] *

      • group-address { mask | mask-length }: specifies the range of the multicast groups served by a C-BSR. Group addresses in the 239.0.0.0/8 are valid group addresses.

      • hash-length hash-length: specifies the hash mask length of a C-BSR.

      • priority priority: specifies the priority of a C-BSR.

  • Configuration in the Global Domain
    1. Access the system view.

      system-view

    2. Access the PIM view.

      pim [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]

    3. Set C-BSR parameters.

      c-bsr global [ hash-length hash-length | priority priority ] *

      • hash-length hash-length: specifies the hash mask length of a C-BSR.

      • priority priority: specifies the priority of a C-BSR.
