Also make sure you either statically configure the RP to use itself with the "ip pim rp-address" command or use auto-rp to announce the loopback as the RP or you will get messages like this on the RP:

Jun 2 12:19:27.155: %PIM-6-INVALID_RP_JOIN: Received (*, 224.0.1.40) Join from 199.1.55.5 for invalid RP 10.10.0.255

other than that I found MSDP to be fairly easy to configure, even using MSDP groups.

HTH
heheh thanks. I'm not sure I need any help on multicast. I think you may have put this in the wrong thread?
