NG MVPN Configuration

Overview of NG MVPN

An NG MVPN is a new framework designed to transmit IP multicast traffic across a BGP/MPLS IP VPN. An NG MVPN uses BGP to transmit signaling information, and uses PIM-SM, PIM-SSM, P2MP TE, or mLDP to transmit data. The NG MVPN enables unicast and multicast services to be delivered using the same VPN architecture.

Feature Requirements for NG MVPN

Configuring an Intra-AS NG MVPN

An NG MVPN allows IP multicast services to run on BGP/MPLS IP VPNs, ensuring reliability, security, and efficiency of IP multicast services.

Configuring Intra-AS Segmented NG MVPN

To ensure successful multicast data transmission on a network where areas use different types of MPLS protocols for tunnel establishment, configure segmented next generation multicast virtual private network (NG MVPN), improving the transmission reliability, security, and efficiency for IP multicast services.

Configuring an Inter-AS or Inter-Area NG MVPN

This chapter describes how to configure an inter-AS or inter-Area NG MVPN.

Configuring NG MVPN Extranet

To enable a service provider on a VPN to provide multicast services for users on other VPNs, configure NG MVPN extranet.

Configuring UMH Route Selection Rules

This section describes how to configure upstream multicast hop (UMH) route selection rules on receiver PEs on an NG MVPN, so that the receiver PEs can select the same sender PE as their root node during VPN route selection.

Configuring Dual-Root 1+1 Protection

Configuring dual-root 1+1 protection accelerates multicast service convergence and improves reliability in case a sender PE on a P2MP tunnel fails.
