Guys, I ran across this in Vol3 Lab 8 T-shoot. I did the task and brought up an MSDP peer b/t R5 & R7. The AS is a confederation but there is an eBGP peering relationship b/t R5-R7. The task required BSR to be configured, sparse mode on appropriate interfaces and the distance command in EIGRP to change the external redistributed routes to 90.
Based on the DSG, I assume that MSDP peering is not required for eBGP peers within an AS, but is required b/t regular eBGP peers? Turning up this MSDP peer did not hurt anything. Would we lose points in the lab if this was configured? Would this even be considered in the script that checks our work when the lab is finished? Thank you, Chris _______________________________________________ Free CCIE R&S, Collaboration, Data Center, Wireless & Security Videos :: iPexpert on YouTube: www.youtube.com/ipexpertinc
