Multi-Topology Routing is a technology to enable service differentiation within an IP network. IGP Flex Algorithm provides a way to compute constraint-based paths over the network. This document defines the PIM message extensions to provide a way to build multicast tree through the specific topology and constraint-based path instead of the shortest path.}, }
