[j-nsp] Multicast over VPLS

[Ihsan Junaidi Ibrahim]

Alaerte,

 

At the moment there's no telling whether the bandwidth savings are that
significant compared to ingress replication method given our multicast
application (IPTV) is currently only on limited deployment.
Theoritically using the P2MP LSPs with BGP-VPLS P-Tunnel attribute, it
should not be replicating the packets (a maximum of only 1 copy of
packet will traverse through the same link).

 

Hope this help.

Hi Ibrahim,

 

Could you tell me if that solved the problem of using same link twice or
more for same flow, when PE1 to PEy goes over same link than PE1 to PEx
and both PEx and PEy has multicast users?

 

tks,

Alaerte

We are already running P2MP LSP (template-based) for VPLS multicast 
delivery. We're on 8.3.

Hi,

Any news about what draft Juniper is considering implement to avoid
waste
bandwidth when sending multicast over VPLS in ring topology?

tks,
Alaerte
