Anycast RP member address—IP address of each Anycast RP member for
communication among the RP members.
Anycast RP address—IP address of the Anycast RP set for communication within the
PIM-SM domain. It is also known as RPA.
As shown in
Figure
34, RP 1, RP 2, and RP 3 are members of an Anycast RP set.

The following describes how Anycast RP through PIM-SM is implemented:
a. RP 1 receives a register message destined to RPA. Because the message is not from other
Anycast RP members (RP 2 or RP 3), RP 1 considers that the register message is from the
DR. RP 1 changes the source IP address of the register message to its own address and
sends the message to the other members (RP 2 and RP 3).
If a router acts as both a DR and an RP, it creates a register message, and then forwards
the message to the other RP members.
b. After receiving the register message, RP 2 and RP 3 find out that the source address of the
register message is an Anycast RP member address. They stop forwarding the message to
other routers.
In Anycast RP implementation, an RP must forward the register message from the DR to other
Anycast RP members to synchronize multicast source information.
