a question related with RP. what are the commands to check RP? should "sh ip pim rp" always work? or should I use "sh ip pim rp mapping" to verify? I sometime saw a empty output from the previous command but did see the RP from the mapping command, then I started to question the configuration. Can anyone clarify?
thanks.

No. If you are using static throughout, then the RP will be static as well.
If you're using RP, you have an rp-send-announcement type command to declare
yourself as RP. If you are using BSR, you have an rp-candidate command to
use.
So yes, there is always some command needed on the RP, but it does not have
to use a separate static rp-address command.

I know as of a certain version of IOS code, an RP must declare itself as the
RP for a multicast group. Does the RP have to statically configure itself as
the RP if some RP discovery mechanism is employed?
Thanks in advance,
Ken
