MicroNugget: How to Use BSR for IPv4 MCaST
Start your free week with CBT Nuggets. https://cbt.gg/2LZhF9F
In this video, Anthony Sequeira covers his favorite way to assign rendezvous points in an IPv4 multicast environment: BSR, or Bootstrap Router. He begins by going over an applicable network topology, then digs into the advantages that BSR can provide, then walks you through each step of configuration.
BSR support in Cisco routers popped up around 11.3T. Prior to this, everyone was dealing with Auto RP, or auto rendezvous point, which was a proprietary solution where Cisco decided they weren’t going to wait for a way to automate RP dissemination, and instead created their own procedure. BSR doesn’t replace Auto RP; it simply augments its capabilities to provide a well-rounded, comprehensive way to assign rendezvous points in a multicast environment. Anthony will walk you through a brief history of BSR, the reasoning behind it, and then show you the three main steps required to set up and configure this functionality.
