Configuring Msdp Peer Connection Control; Configuring Sa Messages Related Parameters - 3Com S7906E Configuration Manual

Before grouping multiple routers into an MSDP mesh group, make sure that these routers are
interconnected with one another.
If you configure more than one mesh group name on an MSDP peer, only the last configuration is
effective.

Configuring MSDP Peer Connection Control

MSDP peers are interconnected over TCP (port number 639). You can flexibly control sessions
between MSDP peers by manually deactivating and reactivating the MSDP peering connections. When
the connection between two MSDP peers is deactivated, SA messages will no longer be delivered
between them, and the TCP connection is closed without any connection setup retry, but the
configuration information will remain unchanged.
When a new MSDP peer is created, or when a previously deactivated MSDP peer connection is
reactivated, or when a previously failed MSDP peer attempts to resume operation, a TCP connection is
required. You can flexibly adjust the interval between MSDP peering connection retries.
Follow these steps to configure MSDP peer connection control:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter public instance MSDP
view or VPN instance MSDP
view
Deactivate an MSDP peer
Configure the interval between
MSDP peer connection retries

Configuring SA Messages Related Parameters

Configuration Prerequisites
Before configuring SA message delivery, 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
Before configuring SA message delivery, prepare the following data:
ACL rules for filtering SA request messages
ACL rules as SA message creation rules
ACL rules for filtering SA messages to be received and forwarded
Use the command...
system-view
msdp [ vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name ]
shutdown peer-address
timer retry interval
1-12
