Specifying an MSDP peer

An MSDP peering relationship is identified by an address pair (the addresses of the local MSDP peer
and the remote MSDP peer). To create an MSDP peering connection, you must perform the following
operation on both devices that are a pair of MSDP peers.
If an interface of the router is shared by an MSDP peer and a BGP or MBGP peer at the same time,
As a best practice, specify an MSDP peer by using the IP address of the BGP or MBGP peer.
To specify an MSDP peer:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter MSDP view.
3. Specify an MSDP peer.

Configuring a static RPF peer

This feature prevents SA messages forwarded by the static RPF peer from undertaking the RPF
check. This simplifies the RPF check mechanism for SA messages.
You can configure an RP policy for the static RPF peer to filter SA messages based on the used IPv4
prefix list that specifies the RP addresses.
If only one MSDP peer is configured on a router, this MSDP peer is considered to be a static RPF
peer.
To configure a static RPF peer:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter MSDP view.
3. Configure a static RPF peer.

Configuring an MSDP peering connection

This section describes how to configure an MSDP peering connection.

Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure an MSDP peering connection, complete the following tasks:
•
Configure a unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain can interoperate at the
network layer.
•
Configure basic MSDP features.
