Project Proposals:BIER Plugin - OpenDaylight Project
BIER (Bit Indexed Explicit Replication) introduces a method for multicast flow forwarding, without storing states in every node along the multicast path. BIER provides optimal multicast forwarding through a "BIER domain" without requiring intermediate routers to maintain any multicast related per-flow state. That really simplifies configuration and states of intermediate routers. More information could be found at IETF: https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/bier/.
SDN controller is supposed to support BIER future, to make devices support BIER more easily and BIER network configuration more simply.
Major Components Delivered in Oxygen
