The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Carrying PIM-SM in ASM mode Trees over P2MP mLDP LSPs' (draft-ietf-mpls-pim-sm-over-mldp-03.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Multiprotocol Label Switching Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Adrian Farrel and Alia Atlas. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-mpls-pim-sm-over-mldp/ Technical Summary When IP multicast trees created by PIM-SM in Any Source Multicast (ASM) mode need to pass through an MPLS domain, it may be desirable to map such trees to Point-to-Multipoint Label Switched Paths. This document describes how to accomplish this in the case where such Point-to-Multipoint Label Switched Paths are established using Label Distribution Protocol Extensions for Point-to-Multipoint and Multipoint-to-Multipoint Label Switched Paths Multipoint LDP (mLDP). Working Group Summary Originally there was an overlap between this document and draft-ietf-mpls-mldp-in-band-wildcard-encoding. This was resolved to the satisfaction of the working group, document shepherd, wg chairs and the authors of both document, before the documents were adopted as working group document. Document Quality We are currently not aware of any implementations of this specification. Personnel Adrian Farrel is the Responsible AD. Loa Andersson is the Document Shepherd.
