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, mLDP FEC,
or SR-P2MP Tree-ID) 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.
