	Title		: Multicast blackhole mitigation with PIM adjacency conditions on routing announcements

In a network running PIM-SM, multicast traffic can fail to be
   properly routed and forwarded during some period of time after a
   topology change, when unicast routing converges to a new path using a
   new next-hop before multicast routing adjacencies are fully setup
   with this new next-hop.  At this point, a blackhole appears in the
   multicast topology and persists until the PIM adjacency become fully
   setup.  This document describes different procedures aiming at
   avoiding such blackholes, focusing on the use of non-congruent
   unicast routing that takes into account the status of PIM
   adjacencies.
