Abstract

Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER) is an architecture that provides optimal multicast forwarding through a "BIER domain" without requiring intermediate routers to maintain any multicast related per- flow state. BIER forwards and replicates packets based on a BitString in the packet header. This document specifies extensions to the BGP Link-state address- family in order to advertising BIER information.
