This document describes extensions to the Label Distribution Protocol
for the setup of Point-to-Multipoint and Multipoint-to-Multipoint
Label Switched Paths in Multi-Protocol Label Switching networks.
These extensions are also referred to as Multipoint LDP. Multipoint
LDP constructs the P2MP or MP2MP Label Switched Paths without
interacting with or relying upon any other multicast tree
construction protocol. Protocol elements and procedures for this
solution are described for building such Label Switched Paths in a
receiver-initiated manner. There can be various applications for
Multipoint Label Switched Paths, for example IP multicast or support
for multicast in BGP/MPLS L3VPNs. Specification of how such
applications can use a LDP signaled Multipoint Label Switched Path is
outside the scope of this document.
