Abstract

Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER) introduces a new multicast- specific BIER Header. Currently BIER has two types of encapsulation formats: one is MPLS encapsulation, the other is Ethernet encapsulation. This document proposes a BIER IPv6 encapsulation for Non-MPLS IPv6 Networks using an IPv6 Destination Option extension header.
