43.4.2 Brief Introduction to MSDP Configuration Tasks
1. Configuration of MSDP Basic Function
1) Enabling MSDP (Required)
2) Configuring MSDP entities (Required)
3) Configuring the Connect-Source interface
4) Configuring static RPF entities
5) Configuring Originator RP
6) Configuring TTL value
2. Configuration of MSDP entities
1) Configuring the Connect-Source interface
2) Configuring the descriptive information for MSDP entities
3) Configuring the AS number
4) Configuring the specified mesh group of MSDP
5) Configuring the maximum size for the cache
3. Configurations on delivery of SA packets
1) Configuring filter policies for creation of SA packets
2) Configuring filter rules on how to receive and forward SA packets
3) Configuring SA request packets
4) Configuring filter policies for SA-Request packets
4. Configuration of parameters of SA-cache
1) Configuring SA packets cache
2) Configuring the aging time for entries in SA packets cache
3) Configuring the maximum size for the cache
43.4.3 Configuration of MSDP Basic Function
All the commands in this section are configured for RP in the PIM-SM domain. These RP will function as the
other peer of the MSDP entities.
43.4.3.1 Prerequisites of MSDP Configuration
Before the MSDP basic functions can be configured, the following tasks should be done:
 At least one single cast routing protocol should be configured, in order to connect the network inside the
domain and outside
 Configure PIM-SM in order to implement multicast inside the domain
When configuring MSDP basic function, the following information should be ready:
 The IP address of MSDP entities
 Filter policy table
Pay attention: MSDP can not use with Any-cast RP at same time, but configure Any-cast RP of based MSDP
protocol.
