7.5 Managing MSDP Peer Connections
MSDP peers should set up TCP connections. You can then flexibly control the sessions set up
between MSDP peers by closing or re-establishing TCP connections. You can also adjust the
interval for retrying to set up a TCP connection between MSDP peers.
7.5.1 Establishing the Configuration Task
After PIM-SM inter-domain multicast or anycast RP in a PIM-SM domain is configured, you
can manage the connection between MSDP peers as required.
Applicable Environment
MSDP peers are connected by the TCP connection (the port number is 639). Users can close or
reestablish a TCP connection, and flexibly control the sessions set up between MSDP peers.
When a new MSDP peer is created, or when a closed MSDP peer connection is restarted, or
when a faulty MSDP peer tries recovering, the TCP connection needs to be immediately set up
between MSDP peers. Users can flexibly adjust the interval for retrying setting up an MSDP
peer connection.
Pre-configuration Tasks
Before managing MSDP peer connections, complete the following tasks:
l Configuring a unicast routing protocol to implement interconnection at the network layer
l Enabling IP multicast
l Configuring a PIM-SM domain to implement intra-domain multicast
l Configuring PIM-SM Inter-domain Multicast or Configuring an Anycast RP in a
PIM-SM Domain
Data Preparation
To manage MSDP peer connections, you need the following data.
No.
Data
1 Address of a remote MSDP peer
2 Interface type and interface number of the local switch
