The IESG has received a request from the BGP Enabled Services WG (bess) to consider the following document: - 'Extranet Multicast in BGP/IP MPLS VPNs' <draft-ietf-bess-mvpn-extranet-04.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2015-12-04. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract Previous RFCs specify the procedures necessary to allow IP multicast traffic to travel from one site to another within a BGP/MPLS IP VPN (Virtual Private Network). However, it is sometimes desirable to allow multicast traffic whose source is in one VPN to be received by systems that are in another VPN. This is known as a "Multicast VPN (MVPN) extranet". This document updates RFCs 6513, 6514, and 6625 by specifying the procedures that are necessary in order to provide MVPN extranet service. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-bess-mvpn-extranet/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-bess-mvpn-extranet/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
