Hi Group : I have collected the following debug out of the BSR router , please tell me if this way of verification is valid to know who was elected as RP

debug ip pim bsr

*Mar 1 01:25:30.175: PIM-BSR(0): RP-set for 224.0.0.0/4
*Mar 1 01:25:30.179: PIM-BSR(0): RP(1) 130.100.5.5, holdtime 11 sec priority 100
*Mar 1 01:25:30.179: PIM-BSR(0): RP(2) 130.100.2.2, holdtime 119 sec priority 200

in the above debug, can we say R5 was elected because of two things : ?

1 - Lower Priority
2 - RP(1) is shown as the first RP in the RP-set.
