    PIM RP versus RP Election Process

    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/sw/5_x/nx-os/multicast/configuration/guide/n7k_multic_cli_5x/pim.html#wp1056672

    Table 4-1 shows the process that the system uses to select the RP for a multicast group if multiple RPs are configured in the network using BSR, Auto-RP, or static RP configurations.

    Table 4-1 PIM RP Versus RP Election Process Summary Table

    BSR-RP vs. BSR-RP

    1. Most specific RP group-list

    2. Lowest RP priority

    3. Highest RP IP address

    assuming they are both BRP-RP with default Pri and group-lists are same or at least not defined YET…..the default states would result in the HIGHEST IP being the tie breaker.
