z Before grouping multiple routers into an MSDP mesh group, make sure that these routers are
interconnected with one another.
z If you configure more than one mesh group name on an MSDP peer, only the last configuration is
effective.
Configuring MSDP Peer Connection Control
MSDP peers are interconnected over TCP (port number 639). You can flexibly control sessions
between MSDP peers by manually deactivating and reactivating the MSDP peering connections.
When the connection between two MSDP peers is deactivated, SA messages will no longer be
delivered between them, and the TCP connection is closed without any connection setup retry, but the
configuration information will remain unchanged.
When a new MSDP peer is created, or when a previously deactivated MSDP peer connection is
reactivated, or when a previously failed MSDP peer attempts to resume operation, a TCP connection
is required. You can flexibly adjust the interval between MSDP peering connection retries.
Follow these steps to configure MSDP peer connection control:
