This document specifies a mechanism to signal Point-to-Multipoint
(P2MP) Pseudowire (PW) trees using LDP. Such a mechanism is suitable
for any Layer 2 VPN service requiring P2MP connectivity over an IP or
MPLS-enabled PSN. A P2MP PW established via the proposed mechanism
is root initiated. This document updates RFC 7385 by reassigning the
reserved value 0xFF to be the wildcard transport tunnel type.
This document is a product of the Pseudowire And LDP-enabled Services Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
