  • Enhanced MVPN provider tunnel selection criteria (ACX7024, ACX7024X, ACX7100-32C, ACX7100-48L, ACX7332, ACX7348, ACX7509, PTX10001-36MR, PTX10002-36QDD, PTX10003, PTX10004, PTX10008, and PTX10016)—We support the following enhanced MVPN provider tunnel selection criteria to finetune multicast path-selection across the core network.

    • Regular Expression for selecting RSVP tunnels for ingress replication.

    • Colored inet.3 table for ingress replication.

    • Root Address for MLDP P2MP tunnels.

    [See Provider Tunnel Selection In Ingress Replication.]

  • Enhanced L3 multicast operational commands (ACX7100-32C, PTX10004, and QFX5130-32CD)—The show instance command is now extended to all routing instances for the following commands. Earlier, only specific PIM-enabled routing instances were displayed.

    • show pim join instance all

    • show pim rps instance all

    • show pim statistics instance all

    • show multicast route instance all

    • show multicast statistics instance all

    Additionally, the show pim statistics output will display V2 Sparse Join and V2 Sparse Prune counters.

    The show igmp statistics output will also display the V1/V2/V3 Membership Query field.

    [See show pim statistics, show multicast statistics, and show igmp statistics.]

  • Multicast support for Next-Generation MVPN (NGMVPN) (PTX10002-36QDD)—Support includes:

    • IR, RSVP-P2MP, and LDP-P2MP provider tunnel

    • Inclusive and selective PMSI tunnel

    • Rendezvous-point tree (RPT)-shortest-path tree (SPT) mode

    • Restart individual PFE instances

    • Turnaround provider edge (PE) device

    • RP mechanisms, including auto rendezvous point (RP), bootstrap router (BSR), and embedded RP
