groupnone stateactive pages5 rev00 expires2026-08-29 canonicalhttps://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-venaas-pim-ipv4-in-ipv6-core/
This document describes how PIM Sparse-Mode can be used to construct IPv4 multicast trees across an IPv6-only network core. It specifies the use of IPv6 PIM messages to carry IPv4 group and source addresses, the use of RPF vectors for reachability, and a new Hello Option to signal support for this capability.
