Configuring the originating RP of SA messages

This feature enables an interface to originate SA messages and to use its IP address as the RP address in SA messages. It is typically used in the Anycast-RP application.

By default, the RP address in SA messages originated by a member Anycast-RP is the Anycast-RP address. The SA messages will fail the RPF check on the other members because the RP address in SA messages is the same as the local RP address. In this case, source information cannot be exchanged within the Anycast-RP. To solve the problem, you must specify an interface other than the interface where the member Anycast-RP resides as the originating RP of SA messages.

1. Enter system view.

   system-view

2. Enter MSDP view.

   msdp [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]

3. Configure an interface as the originating RP of SA messages.

   originating-rp interface-type interface-number

   By default, SA messages are originated by the actual RPs.
