Appendix B Cisco MWR 2941 Router Command Reference
ip pim send-rp-announce
Usage Guidelines Enter this command on the router that you want to be an RP. When you are using Auto-RP to distribute
group-to-RP mappings, this command causes the router to send an Auto-RP announcement message to
the well-known group CISCO-RP-ANNOUNCE (224.0.1.39). This message announces the router as a
candidate RP for the groups in the range described by the access list.
Examples The following example shows how to configure the router to send RP announcements out all Protocol
Independent Multicast (PIM)-enabled interfaces for a maximum of 31 hops. The IP address by which the
router wants to be identified as RP is the IP address associated with Ethernet interface 0. Access list 5
describes the groups for which this router serves as RP.
