Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

The display pim rp-info command is used to display information about an RP that serves specific multicast groups. RPs are classified into dynamic RPs, static RPs, and auto RPs.

Precautions

When you use the display pim rp-info command, note the following points:

If you specify neither vpn-instance nor all-instance in this command, this command displays only information about RPs in a public network instance.
If you specify group-address in this command, this command displays information about the RP that serves the multicast group specified by this parameter.

Example

# View RP information of all the multicast groups in the public network instance.
