As an add-on, the candidate-RP or MA portion of the question... If you are
a mapping agent, you are just forwarding things anyway, so the rp-accept
command doesn't reference that IP at all. It will be WHAT is being learned,
not who from. (otherwise in BSR-land, that would always be your directly
connected neighbors)

Hi Tim,
The command can best be explained as follows, from the doccd:
"ip pim accept-rp
To configure a router to accept join or prune messages destined for a
specified rendezvous point (RP) and for a specific list of groups, use the
ip pim accept-rp command in global configuration mode"
So you are correct that this can be used on any mcast router in a mcast
domain. But don't take my word for it, test yourself, that's part of the
fun. :)

Hi guys,
I just wanted to confirm my understanding of the above command.
My sense is that this command can be used and useful on any mcast router
in a
mcast domain. This is true regardless of whether Auto-RP or BSR is
used. And,
this is true regardless of whether the router is a c-rp or a MA.
Can anyone confirm this?
TIA, Tim
