Abstract

This document describes a mechanism for fast re-route (FRR) protection against the failure of a transit node or link on an explicit point to multipoint (P2MP) multicast path/tree in a "Bit Index Explicit Replication" (BIER) Traffic Engineering (TE) domain. It does not have any per-path state in the core. For a multicast packet to traverse a transit node along an explicit P2MP path, when the node fails, its upstream hop node as a PLR reroutes the packet around the failed node along the P2MP path once it detects the failure.
