Subject: WG Review: Protocol Independent Multicast (pim)
The Protocol Independent Multicast (pim) working group in the Routing
Area of the IETF is undergoing rechartering. The IESG has not made any
determination yet. The following draft charter was submitted, and is
provided for informational purposes only. Please send your comments to
the IESG mailing list (iesg at ietf.org) by 2015-04-30.
Protocol Independent Multicast (pim)

Current Status: Active WG

Mike McBride <mmcbride7@gmail.com>
Technical advisors:

Charter:
The Protocols for IP Multicast (PIM) working group, is chartered to work
on multiple IP multicast protocols. The Working Group is responsible for
the maintenance of PIM, IGMP, and MLD.
The Working Group will work on the following specific items:
1) Management: YANG models for PIM, IGMP, and MLD will be developed, for
both configuration and operational states. If updates to existing MIB
modules are necessary, the WG may work on those.
2) Improve PIM authentication.
3) Improve and Extend PIM Join Attributes to support different types of
multicast applications.
4) Optimization approaches for IGMP and MLD to adapt to link conditions
in wireless and mobile networks and be more robust to packet loss.
Additional work items may be added with a recharter.
The WG should discuss and develop new ideas related to multicast
protocols and distribution of multicast related information.
The WG is expected to use its extensive multicast knowledge to actively
review and participate in WG Last Calls with multicast work that occurs
in other WGs, such as MBONED, LISP, MPLS, BESS, ROLL, and BIER. The WG
should investigate any extensions needed to support other work and, if
additional work is required, the WG may be rechartered to accomplish the
specific extensions.
