Abstract:
The Multicast Virtual Private Network (MVPN) specifications require
the use of multicast tunnels ("P-tunnels") that traverse a Service
Provider's backbone network. The P-tunnels are used for carrying
multicast traffic across the backbone. A variety of P-tunnel types
are supported. Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER) is a new
architecture that provides optimal multicast forwarding through a
"multicast domain", without requiring intermediate routers to
maintain any per-flow state or to engage in an explicit tree-building
protocol. This document specifies the protocol and procedures that
allow MVPN to use BIER as the method of carrying multicast traffic
over an SP backbone network.
