If you're just referring to the RP then it's the highest IP address.

Hello Brian,
I though, that is how the C-BSR is picked and the C-RP has a selection
process as well, which is the one I'm speeking of. The book said the
C-RP is selected by the losest ip of the C-RP's. The C-RP does not have
a preferance that I know of, only the C-BSR.

I have configured BSR-candidate on a router and rp-candidate on R1 and
R2. The rp address of r1 is 172.16.101.1 and R2 172.16.102.1. From
what I understand, the one with the lower ip address should be the rp
and this is chosen by the router that recieves the bootstrap message. I
got this from Doyle page 564. Is this correct. MY config is showing
the one with the higher ip being the rp.
