You can load balance source registration between multiple RPs by strategicallymapping groups to RPs, but this technique is less effective as traffic increases because preemptive load balancing requires priorknowledge of traffic distributions.• lack of scalable register decasulation: With only a single RP per group, all joins are sent to that RP regardless of the topologicaldistance between the RP, sources, and receivers, and data is transmitted to the RP until the SPT switch threshold is reached.• slow convergence when an active RP fails: When you configure multiple RPs, there can be considerable convergence delay involved inswitching to the backup RP.Anycast RP relieves these limitations by allowing multiple RPs per group, which can be distributed in a topologically significant manneraccording to the locations of the sources and receivers.1 All the RPs serving a given group are configured with an identical anycast address.2 Sources then register with the topologically closest RP.3 RPs use MSDP to peer with each other using a unique address.532 Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP)
