Example configuration
In Figure 90, devices A, B, C, and D are in Mesh Group 1234. The example configuration following
the figure shows how the devices are configured to be part of the MSDP mesh group. The example
also shows the features that need to be enabled for the MSDP mesh group to work.

Configuration for Device A
The following set of commands configure the MSDP peers of Device A (1.1.1.1) that are inside and
outside MSDP mesh group 1234. Device A peers inside the mesh group 1234 are 1.1.2.1, 1.1.3.1,
and 1.1.4.1. Device 17.17.17.7 is a peer of Device A, but is outside mesh group 1234. Multicast is
enabled on Device A interfaces. PIM and BGP are also enabled.
