By default, no BSR policy exists,

Configuring an IPv6 PIM domain border
An IPv6 PIM domain border determines the transmission boundary of bootstrap messages.
Bootstrap messages cannot cross the domain border in either direction. A number of IPv6 PIM
domain border interfaces partition a network into different IPv6 PIM-SM domains.

Disabling BSM semantic fragmentation
BSM semantic fragmentation enables a BSR to split a BSM into multiple BSM fragments (BSMFs) if
the BSM exceeds the MTU. In this way, a non-BSR router can update the RP-set information for a
group range after receiving all BSMFs for the group range. The loss of one BSMF only affects the
RP-set information of the group ranges that the fragment contains.
If the IPv6 PIM-SM domain contains a device that does not support this feature, you must disable
BSM semantic fragmentation on all C-BSRs. If you do not disable this feature, such a device regards
a BSMF as a BSM and updates the RP-set information each time it receives a BSMF. It learns only
part of the RP-set information, which further affects the RP election.

Disable BSM semantic
fragmentation.
undo bsm-fragment
enable
By default, BSM semantic
fragmentation is enabled.
NOTE:
Generally, a BSR performs BSM semantic fragmentation according to the MTU of its BSR interface.
For BSMs originated due to learning of a new IPv6 PIM neighbor, semantic fragmentation is
performed according to the MTU of the interface that sends the BSMs.
Disabling the device from forwarding BSMs out of their incoming interfaces
By default, the device forwards BSMs out of their incoming interfaces to avoid the situation that some
devices cannot receive the BSMs because of inconsistent routing information. This results in
