In this manual, the term “router” refers to a router in the generic sense or a Layer 3 Ethernet switch 

running an IP multicast protocol.

Because Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP) does not support the XRN feature, MSDP 

cannot be configured in fabric.  

 

Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP) is an inter-domain multicast solution developed to 

address the interconnection of Protocol Independent Multicast sparse mode (PIM-SM) domains. It is 

used to discover multicast source information in other PIM-SM domains. 

In the basic PIM-SM mode, a multicast source registers only with the RP in the local PIM-SM domain, 

and the multicast source information of a domain is isolated from that of another domain. As a result, the 

RP is aware of the source information only within the local domain and a multicast distribution tree is 

built only within the local domain to deliver multicast data from a local multicast source to local receivers. 

If there is a mechanism that allows RPs of different PIM-SM domains to share their multicast source 

information, the local RP will be able to join multicast sources in other domains and multicast data can 

be transmitted among different domains.
