Abstract:
This document specifies a BGP address family and related procedures
that allow BGP to be used for setting up multicast distribution
trees. This document also specifies procedures that enable BGP to be
used for multicast source discovery, and for showing interest in
receiving particular multicast flows. Taken together, these
procedures allow BGP to be used as a replacement for other multicast
routing protocols, such as PIM or mLDP. The BGP procedures specified
here are based on the BGP multicast procedures that were originally
designed for use by providers of Multicast Virtual Private Network
service.
This document also describes how various signaling mechanisms can be
used to set up end-to-end inter-region multicast trees.
