A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Explicit tracking in MPLS/BGP IP VPNs Authors : Andrew Dolganow Jayant Kotalwar Filename : draft-dolganow-l3vpn-mvpn-expl-track-00.txt Pages : 8 Date : 2014-10-16 Abstract: RFC 6513 and RFC 6514 define encoding and procedures for multicast MPLS/BGP IP Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). As defined in these RFCs, in some cases when BGP is used to exchange C-multicast routes, a need may exist to explicitly track PEs joining the same C- multicast-tree. The RFCs define encoding and procedures for explicit tracking using "PMSI Tunnel attribute" and "Leaf A-D route"; however, the procedures are missing details and clarity. RFC 6625 defines encodings and procedures for wildcards in multicast MPLS/BGP IP VPNs. The RFC does not cover explicit tracking for wildcard multicast streams. This documents updates RFC 6514 and 6625 with procedures required to achieve explicit PE tracking for (C-S, C-G) and wildcard multicast streams.
