The IESG has approved the following document: - 'The PIM Join Attribute Format ' <draft-ietf-pim-join-attributes-06.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Protocol Independent Multicast Working Group. The IESG contact persons are David Ward and Ross Callon. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-pim-join-attributes-06.txt Technical Summary It is sometimes convenient to add additional information to PIM join messages. The generic PIM encoding format is not always optimal to do this. This document defines a new field in the PIM Join message that allows it to use TLVs, hereby called the attribute field. The content and purpose of this attribute field is outside the scope of this document, only the generic encoding format is described here. Working Group Summary This transitioned to being a PS document after re-lastcalling w/ the WG and IETF. Document Quality There are multiple implementations of TLVs in PIM joins.
