• When a static RP and the BSR RP-candidate advertise the same group list (for example, 224.0.0.0/4),
the system elects the system with the highest RP IP address as the RP for any multicast addresses specified
in its group list (see configuration example 2).
• Configuration example 2—Identical RP group list: In this example, the system elects the device
