Configuring MSDP Groups
You can arrange MSDP peers into groups. Each group must contain at least one peer. Arranging peers into groups is useful if you want to block sources from some peers and accept them from others, or set tracing options on one group and not others.
To configure MSDP groups, include one or more of the following statements:
group group-name {disable;export [ policy-names ];import [ policy-names ];local-address address;mode (mesh-group | standard);traceoptions {file filename <files number> <size size> <world-readable |
no-world-readable>;flag flag <flag-modifier> <disable>;}peer address {disable;active-source-limit {maximum number;threshold number;}authentication-key peer-key;default-peer;export [ policy-names ];import [ policy-names ];local-address address;traceoptions {file filename <files number> <size size> <world-readable |
no-world-readable>;flag flag <flag-modifier> <disable>;}}}
You can include these statements at the following hierarchy levels:
- [edit protocols msdp]
- [edit logical-systems logical-system-name protocols msdp]
- [edit logical-systems logical-system-name routing-instances routing-instance-name protocols msdp]
- [edit routing-instances routing-instance-name protocols msdp]
The local-address and peer statements are mandatory. The individual statements are discussed in separate sections.
