Creating an MSDP peer
About an MSDP peer
An MSDP peering relationship is identified by an address pair (the addresses of the local MSDP peer and the remote MSDP peer). To create an MSDP peering connection, you must perform the following operation on both devices that are a pair of MSDP peers.
You can configure a description for an MSDP peer to easily distinguish an MSDP peer from other MSDP peers.
Restrictions and guidelines
If an MSDP peer and a BGP or MBGP peer share the same interface, specify the MSDP peer and the BGP or MBGP peer by using the same IP address.
