Abstract:
This document specifies a way that one or more centralized
controllers can use BGP to set up multicast distribution trees
(identified by either IP source/destination address pair, or mLDP
FEC) in a network. Since the controllers calculate the trees, they
can use sophisticated algorithms and constraints to achieve traffic
engineering. The controllers directly signal dynamic replication
state to tree nodes, leading to very simple multicast control plane
on the tree nodes, as if they were using static routes. This can be
used for both underlay and overlay multicast trees, including
replacing BGP-MVPN signaling.
