Deprecating Any-Source Multicast for Interdomain Multicast
RFC 8815, “Deprecating Any-Source Multicast for Interdomain Multicast”, is a Best Current Practice document published in August 2020 by M. Abrahamsson, T. Chown, L. Giuliano, T. Eckert. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document recommends deprecation of the use of Any-Source Multicast (ASM) for interdomain multicast. It recommends the use of Source-Specific Multicast (SSM) for interdomain multicast applications and recommends that hosts and routers in these deployments fully support SSM. The recommendations in this document do not preclude the continued use of ASM within a single organization or domain and are especially easy to adopt in existing deployments of intradomain ASM using PIM Sparse Mode (PIM-SM).
What “Best Current Practice” means
Documents the IETF community's recommended operational or procedural practice rather than a protocol specification.
