Abstract Abstract
This document proposes an architecture for BIER-TE: Traffic This document proposes an architecture for BIER-TE: Traffic
Engineering for Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER). Engineering for Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER).
BIER-TE shares part of its architecture with BIER as described in BIER-TE shares part of its architecture with BIER as described in
[RFC8279]. It also proposes to share the packet format with BIER. [RFC8279]. It also proposes to share the packet format with BIER.

02: Refresh after IETF104 discussion: changed intended status back
to standard. Reasoning:
Tighter review of standards document == ensures arch will be
better prepared for possible adoption by other WGs (e.g.: DetNet)
or std. bodies.
Requirement against the degree of existing implementations is self
defined by the WG. BIER WG seems to think it is not necessary to
apply multiple interoperating implementions against an
architecture level document at this time to make it qualify to go
to standards track. Also, the levels of support introduced in -01
rev. should allow all BIER forwarding engines to also be able to
support the base level BIER-TE forwarding.
