Abstract

Traffic Engineering for Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER-TE) shares part of architecture, definition and packet format with Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER) according to the introduction in [I-D.eckert-bier-te-arch]. But BIER-TE supports the traffic engineering by explicit hop-by-hop forwarding and loose hop forwarding of packets. This document proposes a set of extensions to realize the BIER-TE forwarding including the assignment of BitPositions to adjacencies and the configuration of Bit Index Forwarding Table (BIFT).
