Prepare
 Requirements for the Multicast Application – IPTV as an example
200-300 SD TV, 2-3.5 Mbps each
10-20 HD TV, 6-20 Mbps each
Few sources, usually centralized
Redundancy between sources is always required
Load-balancing between sources is not always required
Number of subscribers
 Example of requirements

Plan
 Network Audit for Multicast delivery
Provide an assessment and review the readiness of the
existing IP network infrastructure for delivering Multicast
Service
Advise customers in preparing the network to meet Multicast
requirements without impacting existing services
Analyze the network in terms of capacity, quality of services,
security, high availability, bandwidth available
Example findings
Upgrade network link capacity to accommodate projected traffic
Introduce DiffServ-based QoS to differentiate between traffic types
Ensure consistent deployment of high availability mechanism
Define subscriber density guidelines
Add redundancy to eliminate significant single points of failure

Design – Multiple Options
Design
 Architecture supports multiple models for delivering Multicast
Native Multicast in the global routing table
Native Multicast in a VRF/VPN
Point-to-Point Pseudowire (MPLS/L2VPN)
Multipoint Pseudowire (VPLS)
Routed Pseudowire
Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR) for Layer2 access
Multicast VPN (mVPN) based on mGRE
 The choice depends on criteria like customer requirements,
definition of the Multicast Application, type of Video delivery,
Security, Convergence Time

Carrier Ethernet Services Lifecycle Program
Design - Multicast Source Discovery Protocol
Design
Option 1 - MSDP with unique Rendez-Vous Point
(Anycast RP)
Redundancy is achieved with good
convergence (unicast routing is the
convergence time)
Load-Sharing depends on topology, not on
group range
Can work in sparse-mode only (no need for
sparse-dense)
RP1
A
10.1.1.1
Rec
Src
RP2
MSDP
X
Load-Sharing between the two RPs is a plus
Src
SA
Rec
SA
B
10.1.1.1
Rec
Rec
Can be combined with RP hierarchies
Very robust, but the RP address needs to be configured on every router
Security is part of the protocol (SA Filtering and conditional Register)
Very good option when Source redundancy needs to be achieved on a geographical
based (redundancy between cities for national TV channels and not regional)

Design – Source Specific Multicast
Design
Source
172.23.20.70
Option 2 - SSM
Very convenient for One-to-Many
applications
If sources are static, SSM
Mapping can be used
PIM (S,G) join
DNS Server
No need of RP engineering, no
Shared Tree
Easy to maintain and configure,
especially with static mapping
No packet loss due to Shared Tree
to Shortest Path Tree Failover
Redundancy between sources can
be achieved with Anycast IP
PIM (S,G) join
Last Hop
Router
DNS response:
IGMPv2 join
232.1.2.3
Group G -> Source S
Set Top
Box (STB)
Very good option when Source redundancy does not need to be achieved on a
geographical based (redundancy between sources in the same cities)
