CHAPTER 73
RPD System Log Messages
This chapter describes messages with the RPD prefix. They are generated by the routing
protocol process (rpd) which controls the routing protocols that run on the router. This
process starts all the configured routing protocols and handles all the routing messages.
It maintains one or more routing tables, which consolidate the routing information learned
from all routing protocols. From this routing information, the routing protocol process
determines the active routes to network destinations and installs these routes into the
Routing Engine’s forwarding table. Finally, it implements routing policy, which allows you
to control the routing information that is transferred between the routing protocols and
the routing table.
NOTE: When an interface goes down, individual RPD_IGMP_LEAVE and RPD_MLD_LEAVE
messages are no longer generated per group or per host. Instead, a single message
(such as RPD_IGMP_ALL_SUBSCRIBERS_DELETED) is generated for the interface.
