Once this mechanism is available the complications of the shared tree procedures can be avoided. The document introduces a hard-state, reliable transport for the information about multicast streams active in the network. This specification uses the existing PIM reliability mechanisms defined by PIM Over Reliable Transport {[}RFC6559{]}. This is simply a means to transmit reliable PIM messages and does not require the support for Join/Prune messages over PORT as defined in {[}RFC6559{]}.}, }
