The number of MSDP peers configured on the device
The IP address of the peer’s interface with the device
The state of the MSDP device connection with the peer. The state can be
one of the following:
• CONNECTING – The session is in the active open state.
• ESTABLISHED – The MSDP session is fully up.
• INACTIVE – The session is idle.
• LISTENING – The session is in the passive open state.
The keepalive time, which specifies how often this MSDP device sends
keep alive messages to the neighbor. The keep alive time is 60 seconds
and is not configurable.
The hold time, which specifies how many seconds the MSDP device will
wait for a KEEPALIVE or UPDATE message from an MSDP neighbor
before deciding that the neighbor is dead. The hold time is 90 seconds
and is not configurable.
The number of keepalive messages the MSDP device has sent to the
peer.
The number of keepalive messages the MSDP device has received from
the peer.
The number of notification messages the MSDP device has sent to the
peer.
The number of notification messages the MSDP device has received
from the peer.
The number of source active messages the MSDP device has sent to the
peer.
The number of source active messages the MSDP device has received
from the peer.
The reason the previous session with this neighbor ended.
The MSDP device has received a notification message from the neighbor
that contains an error code corresponding to one of the following errors.
Some errors have subcodes that clarify the reason for the error. Where
applicable, the subcode messages are listed underneath the error code
messages:
• 1 – Message Header Error
• 2 – SA-Request Error
• 3 – SA-Message or SA-Response Error
• 4 – Hold Timer Expired
• 5 – Finite State Machine Error
• 6 – Notification
• 7 – Cease
For information about these errors, refer to section 17 in the Internet
draft describing MSDP, “draft-ietf-msdp-spec”.
