An extension to the Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) defined in {[}RFC5036{]} for the setup of point-to-multipoint (P2MP) is described in {[}RFC6388{]} is called mLDP, and is used for multicast- specific tree building. This document describes mLDP extensions to setup a P2MP with BIER information, which is called P2MP based BIER in {[}I-D.xie-bier-mvpn-mpls-p2mp{]}.}, }
