Step 2 Run:
msdp
MSDP is enabled in the public network instance, and the MSDP view is displayed.
Step 3 Run:
peer peer-address connect-interface interface-type interface-number
An MSDP peer connection is created.
The parameters of the command are explained as follows:
l peer-address: specifies the address of a remote MSDP peer.
l interface-type interface-number: specifies the local interface.
Step 4 (Optional) Run:
peer peer-address description text
The description of the MSDP peer is added.
This configuration helps to differentiate remote MSDP peers and manage the connection with
the remote MSDP peers.
The parameters of the command are explained as follows:
l peer-address: specifies the address of a remote MSDP peer.
l text: specifies the description text. The text is a string of 80 characters.
Step 5 (Optional) Run:
peer peer-address mesh-group name
A remote MSDP peer is configured to join a mesh group.
That is, the remote MSDP peer is acknowledged as a member of the mesh group.
If only two switchs are configured with the anycast-RP, this configuration is not necessary.
The parameters of the command are explained as follows:
l peer-address: specifies the address of a remote MSDP peer.
l name: specifies the name of a mesh group. The members of the same mesh group use the
Note the following:
l MSDP peer connections must be set up between all members of the mesh group.
l All members of the mesh group must acknowledge each other as the member of the mesh
l An MSDP peer belongs to only one mesh group. If an MSDP peer is configured to join

8.4.6 Specifying the Logical RP Address for an SA Message

After receiving an SA message, an MSDP peer performs the RPF check on the message. If the
remote RP address carried in the SA message is the same as the local RP address, the MSDP
peer discards the SA message. Therefore, you need to specify a logical RP address for SA
messages on the device on which anycast RP is to be configured.
