XCAST6 (Explicit Multiunicast on IPv6) is a new protocol defined in
RFC 5058. In XCAST, the list of destinations is explicitly encoded
within the data packets instead of using a multicast group address.
Research is currently ongoing on two versions of XCAST6 and this
document describes the design and implementation of a routing engine
for the new version in which the use of hop-by-hop options header has
been eliminated. This draft explains why there is a need for an
XCAST6 routing engine, highlights the requirements for its
implementation, the design process and how to eventually implement
the routing engine to allow for deployment of XCAST6 protocol.
