If by this you mean that a candidate RP can announce 224.0.0.0/4
and the rp-announce-filter can limit them to 224.0.0.0/5, no. The
rp-announce-filter is used to either accept or reject an RP, along with
the groups it is announcing. If RP "X" is advertising groups
224.0.0.0/5, and mapping agent "Y" wants RP X and only RP X to service
these groups there must be matching access-list logic on both X and Y
for this range, along with an additional filter on Y assigning
224.0.0.0/5 to no other RPs.
You would *assume* that the correct logic would be that the
candidate RPs could just announce 224.0.0.0/4 and the mapping agent
could sort through it, but it doesn't work that way. Think of this
feature instead as a way to prevent arbitrary devices from advertising
themselves as candidate RPs for your auto-rp domain.
