Configuring MSDP mesh groups
1
PIM Sparse Domain 1 in Figure 10 contains a mesh group with four RPs. When the first RP, for
example, RP 206.251.21.31 originates or receives an SA message from a peer in another domain,
it sends the SA message to its peers within the mesh group. However, the peers do not send the
message back to the originator RP or to each other. The RPs then send the SA message farther
away to their peers in other domains.The process continues until all RPs within the network receive
the SA message.
Configuring MSDP mesh group
To configure an MSDP mesh group, enter commands such as the following on each device that will
be included in the mesh group.
Brocade(config)# router msdp
Brocade(config-msdp-router)# msdp-peer 206.251.18.31 connect-source loopback 2
Brocade(config-msdp-router)# msdp-peer 206.251.19.31 connect-source loopback 2
Brocade(config-msdp-router)# msdp-peer 206.251.20.31 connect-source loopback 2
Brocade(config-msdp-router)# mesh-group GroupA 206.251.18.31
Brocade(config-msdp-router)# mesh-group GroupA 206.251.19.31
Brocade(config-msdp-router)# mesh-group GroupA 206.251.20.31
Brocade(config-msdp-router)# exit
