680 CHAPTER 48: MSDP CONFIGURATION
Creating an MSDP Peer
Connection
An MSDP peering relationship is identified by an address pair, namely the address
of the local MSDP peer and that of the remote MSDP peer. An MSDP peer
connection must be created on both devices that are a pair of MSDP peers.
Follow these steps to create an MSDP peer connection:
n
If an interface of the router is shared by an MSDP peer and a BGP peer at the same
time, we recommend that you configuration the same IP address for the MSDP
peer and BGP peer.
Configuring a Static RPF
Peer
Configuring static RPF peers avoids RPF check of SA messages.
Follow these steps to configure a static RPF peer:
n
If only one MSDP peer is configured on a router, this MSDP will be registered as a
static RPF peer.

Prerequisites
Before configuring MSDP peer connection, complete the following tasks:
■ Configure any unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain are
interoperable at the network layer.
■ Configuring basic functions of MSDP
