OcNOS-SP : Multicast Guide : Protocol Independent Multicasting Command Reference : PIMv4 Commands : ip pim register-source
ip pim register-source
Use this command to configure the source address of Register packets sent by this DR, overriding the default source address, which is the address of the RPF interface toward the source host.
Use the no option to remove the source address of register packets sent by this DR, and reset it to use the default source address, that is, the address of the RPF interface toward the source host.
The configured address must be a reachable address so the RP can send corresponding Register-Stop messages in response. This address is usually the loopback interface address, but can also be other physical addresses. The address must be advertised by unicast routing protocols on the DR.
Note: The interface configured does not require PIM to be enabled.
