Folks,
I more question here.
If I'm using BSR with sparse mode and my question is asking me to make one
of the RP out of the 2RPs as the primary and other one as
secondary..........what I'm using ........... higher priority configured
makes one RP as the back up and lower priority makes the other RP as the
Primary...................Correct me if I'm wrong.
Thanks,
