Cisco Msdp Requests Table

1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.130.1.1.4

The (conceptual) table listing group ranges and MSDP peers used when deciding where to send an SA Request message when required. If SA Requests are not enabled, this table may be empty. In order to choose a peer to whom to send an SA Request for a given group G, the subset of entries in this table whose (cMsdpRequestsPeerType, cMsdpRequestsPeer) tuple represents a peer whose cMsdpPeerState is established are examined. The set is further reduced by examining only those entries for which cMsdpPeerRequestsGroupAddressType equals the address type of G, and the entries with the highest value of cMsdpRequestsGroupPrefix are considered, where the group G falls within the range described by the combination of cMsdpRequestsGroup and cMsdpRequestsGroupPrefix. (This sequence is commonly known as a 'longest-match' lookup.) Finally, if multiple entries remain, the entry with the lowest value of cMsdpRequestsPriority is chosen. The SA Request message is sent to the peer described by this row.
