[j-nsp] VPLS Flooding Issue

Folks,
Does anyone come across a solution to resolve the VPLS Flooding issue?
I’m using P2MP LSPs and IGMP Snooping on all VPLS interfaces and routing
instances and I’m still getting multicast flooding on multi-point VPLS
circuits.
An example is a 3-point VPLS network. Point “A” is the source of the multicast
and points “B” and “C” are the receivers of the multicast. If “B” sends a Join
request, A will forward the traffic to both “B” and “C”, even if “C” has not
requested to join.
This behavior is causing a lot of waste on the bandwidth and security issues,
especially if “A”, “B” and “C” are internationally dispersed.
Any idea is appreciated.
Thanks…Alex
