Abstract

This document describes a stateless traffic engineering (TE) multicast along an explicit P2MP Path/Tree using an IPv6 extension header called TE multicast routing header (MRH). The MRH with the path encoded in link numbers is added into a packet to be multicast at the ingress. The packet is delivered to the egresses along the path. There is no state stored in the core of the network.
