Configuring with Web Based Management
5.6 The "Layer 3 (IPv4)" menu
You can only use MSDP when the "bidirectional multicast" functionality is disabled in the PIM
network.
Note
MSDP is available only on layer 3.
Settings
The page contains the following boxes:
● MSDP
Enable or disable MSDP.
● Originator ID
Select an interface for identification of the MSDP node. The Originator ID must be unique
in the network.
● Cache Life Time
Enter the time after which an entry with information of another RP is deleted from the SA
cache if no SA cache updates are received. After an entry is created or updated, a timer
starts and runs backwards with the defined time. SA cache updates are received cyclically
and reset the timer of the entry. When the timer expires without an SA cache update being
received in this time. the corresponding entry is deleted.
If the value "0" is set, no SA cache entries are saved.
● Listener Port
TCP port via which the device communicates with other MSDP nodes. If you change the
listener port, only new MSDP connections are affected that are created after this change.
Existing MSDP connections continue to use the previous listener port.
