mesh-group
Syntax
mesh-group <MESH-NAME>
no mesh-group <MESH-NAME>
Description
Associates the given mesh group with the MSDP peer. This feature is used to reduce the amount of SA traffic in an intra-domain setting.
The
no
form of this command removes the peer from the currently configured mesh.
Command context
config-msdp-peer
Parameters
<MESH-NAME>
Specifies the MSDP mesh group name.
Authority
Administrators or local user group members with execution rights for this command.
Usage
All MSDP peers on the router that participate in the mesh group must be fully meshed with all other peers in the mesh group. When MSDP mesh groups are used, SA messages are not flooded to other mesh group peers. It also eliminates RPF checks on arriving SA messages. With MSDP mesh group configured, SA messages are always accepted from mesh group peers.
Example
Associating a mesh group with an MSDP peer:
switch(config-msdp-peer)# mesh-group test-mesh-group
Removing the MSDP peer from the configured mesh:
switch(config-msdp-peer)# no mesh-group test-mesh-group
