Colleagues,

For your information we have posted a new version of
draft-morin-l3vpn-mvpn-considerations to the I-D repository, see below
for the abstract.

This version updates the -00 version with an expanded section on
Inter-AS and a section discussing co-located RPs along with several
minor updates & corrections.

The authors would welcome any comments or feedback on the draft.

Abstract:
The current proposal for multicast in BGP/MPLS includes multiple
alternative mechanisms for some of the required building blocks of the
solution.  The aim of this document is to leverage previously documented
requirements to identify the key elements and help move forward solution
design, toward the definition of a standard having a well defined set of
mandatory procedures.  The different proposed alternative mechanisms are
examined in the light of requirements identified for multicast in
L3VPNs, and suggestions are made about which of these mechanisms
standardization should favor.  Issues related to existing deployments of
early implementations are also addressed.
