[c-nsp] Multicast support in single vrf

[cisconsp at SecureObscure.com]

I am also interested in this. Our pcore today does not have PIM enabled as
multicast was not a requirement when originally constructed (video was
limited to one pop) however as it looks like video over the core may start
growing the question I have is what platforms support mldp and what
configuration is necessary on the P routers to accommodate it?

Thanks

Is that supported on Cisco/7200 yet?
