Title : Deterministic RP (D-RP) Specification
Author(s) : C. Schlise, et al
Filename : draft-brigm-deterministicrp-00.txt
Pages : 10
Date : 2011-05-20
This document specifies the Deterministic Rendezvous Point (D-RP)
mechanism for Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) Sparse Mode (SM)
networks. It intends to provide a simple and robust RP service.
The mechanism is deterministic since it elects the highest priority
candidate to be the D-RP from those available for each IP address family.
If a D-RP fails, the election process begins again using the remaining C-RPs
for the IP address family. If no candidates are availabe, the network will
transition to PIM Dense Mode (DM) routing for that IP address family.
In the future if C-RPs emerge for the address family, the network will
elect a new D-RP and return to operations with PIM SM routing.
