Hi,
This is how I think of it.
Use "promiscuous" on the local peer when you don't configure a remote-peer
for every (or any) remote peer. Since not every (or any) remote peer is
explicitly configured that means that it's up to the remote peer to initiate
the connection. When the remote peer initiates the connection, the local
peer won't accept it unless it has "promiscuous" configured.
Examples;
r1
r2
local peer peer-id <lo0 of r1>
local-peer peer-id <lo0 of r2>
remote-peer 0 tcp <lo0 of r2>
remote-peer 0 tcp <lo0 of r1> (this works)
local-peer peer-id <lo0 of r1> promis local-peer
peer-id <lo0 of r2> (this works b/c r1 has pro
remote-peer 0 tcp <lo0 of r1> iscuous -r2 initiates)
local-peer peer-id <lo0 of r1> promis local-peer
peer-id <lo0 of r2> this DOES NOT work b/c
neither peer can initiate
connection
Remember to enter dlsw before each command above.
Hope this helps.
