Caution:
When configuring a multicast static route, you cannot designate an RPF neighbor by
specifying an interface (by means of the
interface-type interface-number
command
argument combination) if the interface type of that router is Loopback or
VLAN-interface; instead, you can designate an RPF neighbor only by specifying an
address (
rpf-nbr-address
).
8.3.4 Configuring a Multicast Route Match Rule
If more than one route exists to the same subnet, a router chooses a route based on the
sequence of route configuration.
