Configuring basic MSDP features

All the configuration tasks in this section should be performed on RPs in PIM-SM domains, and each
of these RPs acts as an MSDP peer.

Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure basic MSDP features, complete the following tasks:
•
Configure a unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain can interoperate at the
network layer.
•
Configure PIM-SM to enable intra-domain multicast.

Enabling MSDP

Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable IP multicast routing
and enter MRIB view.
3. Return to system view.
4. Enable MSDP and enter
MSDP view.
