Multicast Mobility Routing Optimizations for Proxy Mobile IPv6
RFC 7028, “Multicast Mobility Routing Optimizations for Proxy Mobile IPv6”, is an Experimental document published in September 2013 by JC. Zuniga, LM. Contreras, CJ. Bernardos, S. Jeon, Y. Kim. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document proposes some experimental enhancements to the base solution to support IP multicasting in a Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) domain. These enhancements include the use of a multicast tree mobility anchor as the topological anchor point for multicast traffic, as well as a direct routing option where the Mobile Access Gateway can provide access to multicast content in the local network. The goal of these enhancements is to provide benefits such as reducing multicast traffic replication and supporting different PMIPv6 deployment scenarios.
What “Experimental” means
