Configuring a static RPF peer
Configuring static RPF peers avoids RPF check of SA messages.
To configure a static RPF peer:
Ste
p
Command Remarks
1. Enter system view. system-view N/A
2. Enter public network MSDP view.
msdp N/A
3. Configure a static RPF peer.
static-rpf-peer peer-address [ rp-policy
ip-prefix-name ]
No static RPF peer
configured by default.
NOTE:
If only one MSDP peer is configured on a router, this MSDP will be registered as a static RPF peer.
Configuring an MSDP peer connection
Configuration prerequisites
Before you configure MSDP peer connection, complete the following tasks:
Configure any unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain are interoperable at the
network layer.
Configuring basic functions of MSDP.
Determine the description of MSDP peers.
Determine the name of an MSDP mesh group.
Determine the MSDP peer connection retry interval.
Configuring MSDP peer description
With the MSDP peer description information, the administrator can easily distinguish different MSDP
peers and thus better manage MSDP peers.
To configure description for an MSDP peer:
Ste
p
Command Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view N/A
2. Enter public network MSDP view.
msdp N/A
3. Configure description for an
MSDP peer.
peer peer-address description text
No description for MSDP
peers by default.
Configuring an MSDP mesh group
An AS can contain multiple MSDP peers. You can use the MSDP mesh group mechanism to avoid SA
message flooding among these MSDP peers and optimize the multicast traffic.
