Abstract:
Network Virtualization Overlay (NVO) networks using EVPN as control
plane may use ingress replication (IR) or PIM-based trees to convey
the overlay multicast traffic. PIM provides an efficient solution to
avoid sending multiple copies of the same packet over the same
physical link, however it may not always be deployed in the NVO core
network. IR avoids the dependency on PIM in the NVO network core.
While IR provides a simple multicast transport, some NVO networks
with demanding multicast applications require a more efficient
solution without PIM in the core. This document describes a solution
to optimize the efficiency of IR in NVO networks.
