candidate bootstrap router:
a. Click On in the Bootstrap Router field.
b. (Optional) Enter the address of the bootstrap router in the Local Address text box.
Configure an address for the candidate bootstrap router to help specify the local address
used as the identifier in the bootstrap messages. By default, the router chooses an address
from one of the interfaces on which PIM is enabled.
c. (Optional) Enter the bootstrap router priority (0 to 255) in the Priority text box.
Use the priority option to help specify the priority to advertise in bootstrap messages.
The default priority value is 0.
Note
The domain automatically elects a bootstrap router, based on the assert rank preference
values configured. The candidate bootstrap router with the highest preference value is
elected the bootstrap router. To break a tie, the bootstrap candidate router with the
highest IP address is elected the bootstrap router.
