MSDP Configuration Guidelines

To configure the Multicast Source Discovery protocol (MSDP), include the msdp statement:

msdp {
active-source-limit {
maximum number;
threshold number;
}
data-encapsulation (disable | enable);
disable;
export [ policy-names ];
import [ policy-names ];
local-address address;
rib-group group-name;
traceoptions {
file name <replace> <size size> <files number > <no-stamp>
<world-readable | no-world-readable>;
flag flag <flag-modifier > <disable>;
}
peer address {
active-source-limit {
maximum number;
threshold number;
}
authentication-key peer-key;
default-peer;
disable;
export [ policy-names ];
import [ policy-names ];
local-address address;
traceoptions {
file name <replace> <size size> <files number > <no-stamp>
<world-readable | no-world-readable>;
flag flag <flag-modifier > <disable>;
}
}
group group-name {
disable;
export [ policy-names ];
import [ policy-names ];
local-address address;
mode ( mesh-group | standard );
traceoptions {
file name <replace> <size size> <files number > <no-stamp>
<world-readable | no-world-readable>;
flag flag <flag-modifier > <disable>;
}
peer address ; {
active-source-limit {
maximum number;
threshold number;
}
authentication-key peer-key;
default-peer;
disable;
export [ policy-names ];
import [ policy-names ];
local-address address;
traceoptions {
file name <replace> <size size> <files number > <no-stamp>
<world-readable | no-world-readable>;
flag flag <flag-modifier > <disable>;
}
}
source prefix/mask {
active-source-limit {
maximum number;
threshold number;
}
}
}
}

You can include this statement at the following hierarchy levels:

For an overview of logical routers and a detailed example of logical router configuration, see the logical routers chapter of the JUNOS Feature Guide.

By default, MSDP is disabled.

For a configuration example, see Example: Configuring MSDP.

This chapter describes the following tasks for configuring MSDP:
