Cisco Systems' Solution for Multicast in BGP/MPLS IP VPNs
RFC 6037, “Cisco Systems' Solution for Multicast in BGP/MPLS IP VPNs”, is a Historic document published in October 2010 by E. Rosen, Y. Cai, IJ. Wijnands. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document describes the MVPN (Multicast in BGP/MPLS IP VPNs) solution designed and deployed by Cisco Systems. The procedures specified in this document are largely a subset of the generalized MVPN framework recently standardized by the IETF. However, as the deployment of the procedures specified herein predates the publication of IETF standards (in some cases by over five years), an implementation based on these procedures differs in some respects from a fully standards-compliant implementation. These differences are pointed out in the document. This document defines a Historic Document for the Internet community.
What “Historic” means
A specification that has been superseded or is otherwise no longer recommended for use.
