30.2.2 Configuring MSDP Peers To run MSDP, you need to configure MSDP peers locally.
Please perform the following configurations in MSDP view.
Table 30-2 Configuring MSDP peers
Operation Command
Configure MSDP peers peer peer-address connect-interface
interface-type interface-number
Remove MSDP peer configuration undo peer peer-address
Add description to a MSDP peer peer peer-address description text
Remove the description undo peer peer-address description text
The command to add description is optional.
If the local router is also in BGP Peer relation with a MSDP peer, the MSDP peer and
the BGP peer should use the same IP address.
Not any two routers between which MSDP peer relationship has been established must
run BGP or MBGP, so long as they have a BGP or MBGP route between them. If no
BGP of MBGP route exists between them, then you must configure static RPF peers.
30.2.3 Configuring Static RPF Peers Please perform the following configurations in MSDP view.
Table 30-3 Configuring static RPF peers
Operation Command
Configure static RPF peers static-rpf-peer peer-address [ rp-policy list ]
Remove static RPF peer
configuration undo static-rpf-peer peer-address
By default, no static RPF peer is configured.
The peer command must be configured before the configuration of static-rpf-peer
command.
If only one MSDP peer is configured via the peer command, the MSDP peer will be
regarded as the static RPF peer.
To configure multiple static RPF peers at the same time, take any of the two methods:
z Using rp-policy parameters universally: Multiple static RPF peers take effect at
the same time and SA messages are filtered by the RP addresses contained
according to the configured prefix list. If multiple static RPF peers using the same
