For redundancy, we do have multiple ingress points streaming the same content, but we're always choosing one source at a time, as it would be too complex to try and take live streams from all sources at the same time just by IP routing alone. In this case, a particular Sender PE router is chosen to ingress Multicast data for the network based on the LOCAL_PREF value of the BGP route toward (C-S). Every Sender PE router applies a BGP LOCAL_PREF value to the (C-S) route in a "3, 2, 1" type order. So basically, a live/standby approach. This is the simplest approach we could take prior to the protocol introducing support for 'draft-morin-l3vpn-mvpn- fast-failover-05'. Cheers, Mark.
