Hi, I've been working in PIM WG and submitted a draft describing multiple upstream interface support for IGMP/MLD proxy. http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-asaeda-pim-mldproxy-multif-01
The abstract is as follows; This document describes the way of supporting multiple upstream interfaces for an IGMP/MLD proxy device. The proposed extension enables that an IGMP/MLD proxy device receives multicast packets through multiple upstream interfaces. The upstream interface is selected with manually configured supported address prefixes and interface priority value. A take-over operation switching from an inactive upstream interface to an active upstream interface is also considered. In the last PIM WG meeting, I got a comment that Homenet WG may be interested in this feature. If someone in this group would be interested in this feature, please kindly take a look at this draft and give us comments. (It'd be better to post your comments for this draft to PIM ML, but if you don't subscribe PIM ML, please directly mail me your comments. I can then reply and copy to PIM ML if needed.) Thank you.
