The BGP-based control procedures for Multicast Virtual Private
Networks (MVPNs) make use of a BGP attribute known as the
"P-Multicast Service Interface (PMSI) Tunnel" attribute.  The
attribute contains a one-octet "Flags" field.  The purpose of this
document is to establish an IANA registry for the assignment of the
bits in this field.  Since the "Flags" field contains only eight
bits, this document also defines a new BGP Extended Community,
"Additional PMSI Tunnel Attribute Flags", that can be used to carry
additional flags for the "P-Multicast Service Interface (PMSI)
Tunnel" attribute.  This document updates RFC 6514.

This document is a product of the BGP Enabled Services Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard.
