R3(conf)#do show ip msdp summary
Peer Addr Local Addr State Source SA Up/Down
Description
To view details about a peer, use the
show ip msdp peer
command in EXEC privilege mode.
Multicast sources in remote domains are stored on the RP in the source-active cache (SA cache). The system does not create entries in
the multicast routing table until there is a local receiver for the corresponding multicast group.

Manage the Source-Active Cache
Each SA-originating RP caches the sources inside its domain (domain-local), and the sources which it has learned from its peers (domain-
remote).
By caching sources:
• domain-local receivers experience a lower join latency
• RPs can transmit SA messages periodically to prevent SA storms
• only sources that are in the cache are advertised in the SA to prevent transmitting multiple copies of the same source information
Viewing the Source-Active Cache
To view the source-active cache, use the following command.
• View the SA cache.

Limiting the Source-Active Cache
Set the upper limit of the number of active sources that the Dell Networking OS caches.
The default active source limit is 500K messages. When the total number of active sources reaches the specified limit, subsequent active
sources are dropped even if they pass the reverse path forwarding (RPF) and policy check.
To limit the number of sources that SA cache stores, use the following command.
• Limit the number of sources that can be stored in the SA cache.
