5.7 Troubleshooting MSDP Configuration
5.7.1 MSDP Peer Always in the Down State
I. Symptom
An MSDP peer is configured, but it is always in the down state.
II. Analysis
An MSDP peer relationship between the locally configured
connect-interface
interface address and the configured peer address is based on a TCP connection. If the
address of local
connect-interface
interface is inconsistent with the peer address
configured on the peer router, no TCP connection can be established. If there is no
route between the two peers, no TCP connection can be established.
III. Solution
1) Check the connectivity of the route between the routers. Use the
display ip
routing-table
command to check that the unicast route between the routers is
correct.
2) Further check that a unicast route exists between two routers that will become
MSDP peers and that the route leads to the two peers.
3) Check that the interface addresses of the MSDP peers are consistent. Use the
display current-configuration
command to check that the address of the local
connect-interface interface is consistent with the address of the corresponding
MSDP peer.
