I am also interested in this. Our pcore today does not have PIM enabled as multicast was not a requirement when originally constructed (video was limited to one pop) however as it looks like video over the core may start growing the question I have is what platforms support mldp and what configuration is necessary on the P routers to accommodate it?

Is that supported on Cisco/7200 yet? _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/ _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
