MSDP Configuration Task List

679

Protocols and Standards

MSDP is documented in the following specifications:

■

RFC 3618: Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP)

■

RFC 3446: Anycast Rendezvous Point (RP) mechanism using Protocol
Independent Multicast (PIM) and Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP)

MSDP Configuration
Task List

Complete these tasks to configure MSDP:

Configuring Basic
Functions of MSDP

All the configuration tasks should be carried out on RPs in PIM-SM domains, and
each of these RPs acts as an MSDP peer.

Configuration

Prerequisites

Before configuring the basic functions of MSDP, complete the following tasks:

■

Configure any unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the domain are
interoperable at the network layer.

■

Configuring PIM-SM to enable intra-domain multicast forwarding.

Before configuring the basic functions of MSDP, prepare the following data:

■

IP addresses of MSDP peers

■

Address prefix list for an RP address filtering policy

Enabling MSDP

Follow these steps to enable MSDP:
