hi guys.
i'm facing this strange issue, where the router is not seeing/showing the priority of the RP. and hence selecting the wrong RP.
The device with issue
show ip pim rp mapping
PIM Group-to-RP Mappings
Group(s) 224.0.0.0/4
RP 10.97.255.1 (?), v2
Info source: 10.87.255.1 (?), via bootstrap
Uptime: 2w1d, expires: 00:01:32
RP 10.87.255.1 (?), v2
Info source: 10.87.255.1 (?), via bootstrap
Uptime: 2w1d, expires: 00:01:34
it is not showing the priority, hence it is selecting the one with highest IP. BUT the design is other way around. a working router has the following output
show ip pim rp mapping
PIM Group-to-RP Mappings
Group(s) 224.0.0.0/4
RP 10.87.255.1 (?), v2
Info source: 10.87.255.1 (?), via bootstrap, priority 10, holdtime 150
Uptime: 7w2d, expires: 00:01:58
RP 10.97.255.1 (?), v2
