All,

I know this is an old topic but I have been seeing different opinions from
different vendors. When configuring sparse mode only and using static RPs do
we have to configure the ip pim rp-address on the RP itself or no? From my own
experience it is good practice do configure it and I am actually testing it
right now and it doesn't work without it. I get "Received Register from
router 129.1.46.6 for group 232.32.32.32, 150.1.0.255 not willing to be RP".
After I configure the ip pim rp-address command on the RP, all works. However,
I have gotten feedback from Cisco that it is not needed. Could anyone clarify
this please? Thanks, Mike P.
