| Parameter | Description | Value |
|---|---|---|
| vpn-instance-name |
Specifies the name of a VPN instance. |
The value is a string of 1 to 31 case-sensitive characters, spaces not supported. The VPN instance name "_public_" cannot be used. The string can contain spaces if it is enclosed with double quotation marks ("). |
| peer-address |

Usage Scenario
When you want to re-configure the TCP connection between MSDP peers or clear statistics about the specified MSDP peer, run the reset msdp peer command.
Use the reset msdp statistics command to clear the statistics about an MSDP peer without resetting the MSDP peer.Configuration Impact
After this command is run, the TCP connection with the specified MSDP peer is torn down and a new TCP is set up again. During this process, MSDP services are interrupted, which may affect multicast services, for example, multicast data transmission fails. Therefore, use this command with caution.
Precautions
If vpn-instance is not specified, the TCP connections set up between MSDP peers in the public network instance are reset and the statistics about MSDP peers in the public network instance are cleared.
