Multicast over SRv6 networks

groupnone stateactive pages10 rev01 expires2026-07-17 canonicalhttps://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-mankamana-pim-multicast-over-srv6/
This document presents solutions for deploying multicast in SRv6 networks. It explores the use of the native IPv6 multicast data plane for multicast distribution. The document discusses distributed control plane mechanisms, including PIM, and its integration with IGP Flex-Algo to optimize multicast delivery. The document also addresses overlay multicast solutions for both the Global Table Multicast (GTM) and Multicast VPNs (MVPNs), utilizing IP-in- IPv6 encapsulation without requiring additional shim layers.
