Configuring Draft-Rosen Multicast VPNs

Draft-rosen multicast virtual private networks (MVPNs) can be configured to support service provider tunnels operating in any-source multicast (ASM) mode or source-specific multicast (SSM) mode.

There are three functional areas to configure for draft-rosen MVPNs with service provider tunnels operating in SSM mode:

• Provider tunnel
• Autodiscovery mechanism
• Control plane protocol

Users need to be familiar with Layer 3 VPN operation on Juniper Networks routers, which is discussed in the Junos VPNs Configuration Guide.
