{ If the TTL value is greater than or equal to the threshold, the router encapsulates the multicast
data in an SA message and sends the SA message.
• After receiving an SA message with an encapsulated multicast data packet, the router decreases the
TTL value of the multicast packet by 1 and then checks the TTL value:
{ If the TTL value is less than the threshold, the router does not forward the SA message to the
designated MSDP peer.
{ If the TTL value is greater than or equal to the threshold, the router re-encapsulates the multicast
data in an SA message and sends the SA message.

811BConfiguring the SA cache mechanism
To reduce the time spent in obtaining the multicast information, enable the SA cache mechanism to
cache (S, G) entries contained in SA messages locally on the router. However, caching (S, G) entries uses
memory space on the router.
When the SA cache mechanism is enabled and the router receives a new (*, G) join message, the router
searches its SA cache first.
• If the corresponding (S, G) entry does not exist in the cache, the router waits for the SA message that
its MSDP peer will send in the next cycle.
• If the corresponding (S, G) entry exists in the cache, the router joins the corresponding SPT rooted
at S.
To protect the router against DoS attacks, you can set a limit on the number of (S, G) entries that the router
can cache.
