The msdp command enables the Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP) and displays the MSDP view of the public network instance or the VPN instance.
The undo msdp command clears all configurations in the MSDP view, releases resources occupied by MSDP, and restores the initial state.
By default, MSDP is not enabled.
