Abstract
This draft proposes one new encapsulation schema of Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER) information to transfer the multicast packets within the IPv6 network. By using a new type of IPv6 Routing Header to forward the packet, the original source address and destination address of the multicast packet is kept unchanged along the forwarding path. Such encapsulation schema can make full use of the existing IPv6 quality assurance solutions to provide high-quality multicast service.
