Enable MSDP
Enable MSDP by peering RPs in different administrative domains.

Multicast sources in remote domains are stored on the RP in the Source-active cache (SA cache). The
system does not create entries in the multicast routing table until there is a local receiver for the
corresponding multicast group.
Manage the Source-active Cache
Each SA-originating RP caches the sources inside its domain (domain-local), and the sources which it has
learned from its peers (domain-remote). By caching sources:
• domain-local receivers experience a lower join latency,
