Configuring Sa Message-Related Parameters; Configuration Prerequisites; Enabling Multicast Data Encapsulation In Sa Messages - HPE FlexNetwork 5510 HI Series Configuration Manual

• A new MSDP peer is created.
• A previously deactivated MSDP peering connection is reactivated.
• A previously failed MSDP peer attempts to resume operation.
You can change the MSDP connection retry interval to adjust the interval between MSDP peering
connection attempts.
To enhance MSDP security, enable MD5 authentication for both MSDP peers to establish a TCP
connection. If the MD5 authentication fails, the TCP connection cannot be established.
IMPORTANT:
The MSDP peers involved in MD5 authentication must be configured with the same authentication
method and key. Otherwise, the authentication fails and the TCP connection cannot be established.

Configuring SA message-related parameters

This section describes how to configure SA message-related parameters.

Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure SA message delivery, 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.

Enabling multicast data encapsulation in SA messages

Some multicast sources send multicast data at an interval longer than the aging time of (S, G)
entries. In this case, the source-side DR must encapsulate multicast data packet-by-packet in

By default, an MSDP peering
connection is active.
By default, the keepalive timer
and peer hold timer are 60
seconds and 75 seconds,
respectively.
This command immediately takes
effect on an established session.
The default setting is 30 seconds.
By default, the device does not
perform MD5 authentication when
establishing a TCP connection
with an MSDP peer.
