This section provides an example for configuring dual-root 1+1 protection for mLDP P2MP tunnels.
In an NG MVPN scenario, if a sender PE on a P2MP tunnel fails, the C-multicast service will be interrupted. Multicast services can rely only on unicast route convergence for recovery. However, unicast route convergence takes a long time, which is unacceptable to the multicast services that have high reliability requirements. To resolve this problem, you can configure dual-root 1+1 protection for mLDP P2MP tunnels. On the network shown in Figure 1, a primary mLDP P2MP tunnel is established with PE1 as the root node, and a backup mLDP P2MP tunnel is established with PE2 as the root node. When links are working properly, the same multicast traffic is forwarded through both the primary and backup tunnels. The leaf node PE3 selects the multicast traffic received from the primary tunnel and discards the multicast traffic received from the backup tunnel. If PE1 fails, the leaf node can use BFD for mLDP P2MP to quickly detect the mLDP P2MP tunnel fault and choose to accept the multicast traffic received from the backup tunnel. This accelerates multicast service convergence and improves reliability.
The configuration roadmap is as follows:
Configure BGP/MPLS IPv6 VPN and ensure that the unicast VPN is working properly.
Enable mLDP globally on PEs so that the PEs can use mLDP to establish P2MP tunnels.
Enable all PEs to establish BGP MVPN peer relationships and configure BGP to transmit A-D and C-multicast routes.
Configure PE1 and PE2 as sender PEs. Configure mLDP P2MP on PE1 and PE2 so that two mLDP P2MP tunnels rooted at PE1 and PE2 respectively can be established, with PE3 as a leaf node.
Configure BFD for mLDP P2MP on the PEs to detect public network node or link failures.
Configure VPN FRR on PE3 so that PE3 can have two routes to the same multicast source. PE3 uses the route advertised by PE1 as the primary route and the route advertised by PE2 as the backup route.
Enable C-multicast FRR on PE3.
Configure PIM on the PEs' interfaces bound to a VPN instance and on the CEs' interfaces connected to PEs so that VPN multicast routing entries are generated for multicast traffic forwarding.
Configure MLD on the interface connecting a multicast device (CE2) to the user network segment to allow the device to manage multicast group members on the local network.
To complete the configuration, you need the following data:
Public network OSPF process ID: 1; area ID: 0 OSPF multi-instance process ID: 2; area ID: 0

After the configurations are complete, mLDP P2MP tunnels have dual-root 1+1 protection. After users of CE2 send MLD Report messages and the multicast source at 2001:DB8:1::264 sends multicast traffic, you can check multicast routing entries.
When the links are working properly:

The command outputs show that traffic exists in the backup tunnel because a backup upstream device is available. Multicast traffic in the backup tunnel is forwarded to receivers immediately after BFD detects that the primary tunnel is faulty.
