You can configure selective point-to-multipoint LSPs for multicast VPNs. Selective point-to-multipoint LSPs send traffic only to the receivers configured for the multicast VPNs, helping to minimize flooding in the service provider's network.
As with inclusive point-to-multipoint LSPs, you can configure both dynamic and static selective tunnels for the multicast VPN.
To configure selective point-to-multipoint provider tunnels, include the selective statement:
-
selective {
-
- group address {
-
- source source-address {
-
- rsvp-te {
- label-switched-path-template (default-template | lsp-template-name);
- static-lsp lsp-name;
- }
- threshold-rate number;
- }
- }
- tunnel-limit number;
- }
You can include these statements at the following hierarchy levels:
