Morin and S. Litkowski and K. Patel and Z. Zhang and R. Kebler and J. Haas}, title = {{Multicast VPN State Damping}}, pagetotal = 18, year = 2016, month = jun, abstract = {This document describes procedures to damp Multicast VPN (MVPN) routing state changes and control the effect of the churn due to the multicast dynamicity in customer sites. The procedures described in this document are applicable to BGP-based multicast VPN and help avoid uncontrolled control-plane load increase in the core routing infrastructure. The new procedures proposed were inspired by BGP unicast route damping principles that have been adapted to multicast.}, }
