Re: pim auto-rp priority missing?

So, in essence, there are 2 ways to create Backup RPs.

1) Have both RPs announce as candidates to MA for the same group(s). MA will
select one as best and advertise to others.
2) Use Anycast RP (RPs having same loopback IP), such that if one RP is
lost, IGP will select the other.

Does anyone know how can we have Backup MAs ? So that if one MA is down,
other is used. I haven't labbed this up though, but would be interested to
know if someone has done already.
