Multicast in MPLS Based Networks and VPNs

  • Author(s) / Creator(s)
  • Impetuous development of Internet and IP technologies lead to increasing number of users and burst number of the traffic flows, needed to services demands of these users. Although ISP every few years upgrade their networks with new interfaces: 1G to 10G, 10G to 100G, 400G is near, the exponential growth of requested bandwidth and new services becoming trends for technological answer for implementation of modern means for traffic delivery, specially such as bandwidth hungry video and other over the top applications . Due to special nature of multicast traffic usually it is forwarded in separate way that uncast IP, so we come to concept of isolated traffic infrastructure - MVPN (multicast virtual private network). At ISPs MVPN usually uses overlay model and implemented over IP/MPLS as a service. (As cited in abstract.)
