This document describes procedures to damp Multicast VPN (MVPN)
routing state changes and control the effect of the churn due to the
multicast dynamicity in customer sites. The procedures described in
this document are applicable to BGP-based multicast VPN and help
avoid uncontrolled control-plane load increase in the core routing
infrastructure. The new procedures proposed were inspired by BGP
unicast route damping principles that have been adapted to multicast.
This document is a product of the BGP Enabled Services Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
