The peer connect-interface command configures an MSDP peer.
The undo peer command restores the default configuration.
| Parameter | Description | Value |
|---|---|---|
| peer-address | Indicates the address of a remote MSDP peer. | The address is in dotted decimal notation. |
| interface-type interface-number | Indicates the type and number of an interface. The local FW uses the primary address of the interface as the source IP address to set up the TCP connection with the remote MSDP peer. | The system does not advertise routes on MTIs to private networks. Therefore, do not use the addresses of MTIs to set up the MSDP peer relationship. |
By default, no MSDP peer is configured.
Usage Scenario
The peer connect-interface command is used to configure MSDP peers and set up TCP connections among these MSDP peers.
Configuration Impact
Before running other peer commands, run the peer connect-interface command.
You can repeat the peer peer-address connect-interface interface-type interface-number command to configure multiple MSDP peers for the local FW.
You can specify the same interface-type interface-number for different peer-address. That is, you can specify the same local interface for different remote peers.
You can specify different interface-type interface-number for different peer-address. That is, you can specify different local interfaces for different remote peers.
