Configuring a Static Rendezvous Point

The rendezvous point (RP) is a PIM-enabled interface on a router that acts as the root a group-specific tree; every group must have an RP.

Identify an RP by the IP address of a PIM-enabled or Loopback interface.
{ip | ipv6} pim rp-address address group-address group-address mask [override]

Example of Viewing an RP on a Loopback Interface

Following is an example of IPv4 configuration:

DellEMC#show running-configuration interface loop0
!
interface Loopback 0
  ip address 1.1.1.1/32
  ip pim sparse-mode
  no shutdown
DellEMC#show running-configuration pim
!
ip pim rp-address 1.1.1.1 group-address 224.0.0.0/4 

Following is an example of IPv6 configuration:

DellEMC#show running-configuration interface loop0
!
interface Loopback 0
  ipv6 address 2111:dddd:0eee::22/64
  ipv6 pim sparse-mode
  no shutdown
DellEMC#show running-configuration pim
!
ipv6 pim rp-address 2111:dddd:0eee::22/64 group-address 2111:dddd:0eee::22/128
