Creating an MSDP peer connection
An MSDP peering relationship is identified by an address pair, namely, the address of the local MSDP
peer and that of the remote MSDP peer. An MSDP peer connection must be created on both devices that
are a pair of MSDP peers.
If an interface of the router is shared by an MSDP peer and a BGP or MBGP peer at the same time, HP
recommends that you configure the IP address of the MSDP peer the same as that of the BGP or MBGP
peer.
