Follow these steps to configure the SA message content:

Enable encapsulation of a

Optional
PIM RP address by default
Configuring SA request messages
By default, upon receiving a new Join message, a router does not send an SA request message to any
MSDP peer; instead, it waits for the next SA message from its MSDP peer. This will cause the receiver to
delay obtaining multicast source information. To enable a new receiver to get the active multicast source
information as early as possible, you can configure routers to send SA request messages to the
designated MSDP peers upon receiving a Join message of a new receiver.
Follow these steps to configure SA message transmission and filtering:

Enable the device to send SA
request messages
peer peer-address

Optional
Disabled by default
Configure a filtering rule for SA
request messages
peer peer-address sa-request-policy
[ acl acl-number ]
Optional
SA request messages are not filtered
by default
NOTE:
Before you can enable the device to send SA requests, be sure to disable the SA message cache
mechanism.
Configuring SA message filtering rules
By configuring an SA message creation rule, you can enable the router to filter the (S, G) entries to be
advertised when creating an SA message, so that the propagation of messages of multicast sources is
controlled.
By configuring a filtering rule for receiving or forwarding SA messages, you can enable the router to filter
the (S, G) forwarding entries to be advertised when receiving or forwarding an SA message, so that the
propagation of multicast source information is controlled at SA message reception or forwarding.
By configuring a TTL threshold for multicast data packet encapsulation in SA messages, you can control
the multicast data packet encapsulation in SA messages and limit the propagation range of SA
messages:
