MSDP basic functions
Configuring Description
Information for MSDP
Peers
You can configure description information for each MSDP peer to manage and
memorize the MSDP peers.
Configuring Anycast RP
Application
If you configure RPs with the same address for two routers in the same PIM-SM
domain, the two routers will be MSDP peers to each other. To prevent failure of
RPF check on SA messages between MSDP peers, you must configure the RP
address to be carried in the SA messages.
n
In Anycast RP application, C-BSR and C-RP must be configured on different devices
or ports.
Configuring an MSDP
Mesh Group
Configure a mesh group name on all the peers that will become members of the
MSDP mesh group so that the peers are fully connected with one another in the
mesh group.
