Abstract
Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER) is a new multicast forwarding paradigm which doesn't require an explicit tree-building protocol nor intermediate routers to maintain any multicast state. BIER has two types of encapsulation formats: one is MPLS-BIER encapsulation, the other is non-MPLS-BIER encapsulation. This document proposes a mechanism of encapsulating non-MPLS-BIER packets over UDP tunnels.
