configured to make the configuration immune against possible changes in
what the default behavior is.
If a group and/or source prefix list is provided, then the RPF lookup mode
will only apply to source, group addresses that match the given prefix list(s).
Not all RPF lookups have a valid group address when performing a lookup, e.g. RPF
to an RP only does a lookup to the RP address and has no specific group.
Lookups that do not have a specific group will only use lookup modes that do not
specify a group-list.
A global rpf lookup mode that does not have a group or source list is always installed
and, as documented above, uses the ``mrib-then-urib`` mode by default.
This can be changed with an rpf-lookup-mode MODE that does not specify group or source lists.
There can be any number of rpf lookup modes, as long as the combination of group and source
list is unique.
