  1. Multi-Upstream Interfaces IGMP/MLD Proxy draft-zhang-pim-multi-upstream-igmp-mld-proxy-01 Shuai Gao Beijing Jiaotong University HAW Hamburg 2013.8

  2. History of this Work • Initial idea in MAGMA • Picked up in MULTIMOB – draft-zhang-multimob-msm-03, July 2011 – draft-ietf-multimob-pmipv6-source-00, Jan 2012 • Work deferred to PIM WG – moved to Appendix in source-draft – draft-zhang-pim-multi-upstream-igmp-mld-proxy-00, in Orlando.

  3. Basic Operation Rules • Inherits basic rules of the IGMP/MLD proxy and extends with multiple upstream interfaces • The proxy device should initiate unique traffic subscriptions • Policy List for default upstream interface selection • Default upstream interface • (node prefix, G prefix/multicast state) • Different operation for source and receiver

  4. Different operation for source and receiver • For multicast senders attached: • For packets received from downstream interface • Direct connection check for the (first) PIM-SM multicast router • For multicast listeners attached: • For packets received on its upstream interfaces. • For the subscriptions from downstream

  5. Report of subscriptions on upstream interfaces • Initiate unique traffic subscriptions to avoid the redundant multicast traffic. • Compare the receiving subscription with existing subscriptions. • A new one • The same one • Included • Overlapped • All subscriptions sent on the same upstream interface SHOULD be merged according the merging rule in RFC 4605 • Local source should be excluded.
