Configuring A Static Rpf Peer; Configuring An Msdp Peer Connection; Prerequisites; Configuring Msdp Peer Description - HP A6600 Configuration Manual

If an interface of the router is shared by an MSDP peer and a BGP or MBGP peer at the same time, HP
recommends you to configure the IP address of the MSDP peer the same as that of the BGP or MBGP
peer.

Configuring a static RPF peer

Configuring static RPF peers avoids RPF check of SA messages.
To do...
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter public network MSDP view
or VPN instance MSDP view.
3. Configure a static RPF peer.
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

Prerequisites

Before configuring 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 do...
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter public network MSDP
view or VPN instance MSDP
view.
3. Configure description for an
MSDP peer.
Use the command...
system-view
msdp [ vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name ]
static-rpf-peer peer-address
[ rp-policy ip-prefix-name ]
Use the command...
system-view
msdp [ vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name ]
