Hi
 
Just following up on this topic. Do you think "ip msdp mesh-group" command is required while configuring basic MSDP with out bgp. In my lab it works with or without it, therefore not sure whether to keep this in the config or not.
 
Thanks
 
Sheikh

        MSDP will use BGP by default, the normal practice is to configure ip
        msdp default-peer A.B.C.D to identify the MSDP peeer and then the route
        to that peer can come from any routing method. AFAIK, this is the only
        thing to be concerned about with MSDP and BGP.

        Hi,
          Per my understanding, when using multicast between diference domain
        like PIM-SM can consult RPF through unicast routing like BGP.
         If the question asking to use MSDP. Do we need to enable MBGP along
        through domains?
        I tested in my home lab. MSDP works without MBGP. Look like it is
        difference topic but I alway see it tied to each other when there 's
        topic in many books.
        Appreciated your help to shine on this.
