Abstract

While the deployment of IPv4 network-layer multicast has been mostly limited to LAN level networks due to scalability and management issues, the application of a large-scale, secure and controllable IPv6 multicast is of great interest in the current high-bandwidth transmission networks. In this paper we (1) define multicast application requirements, (2) propose a scalable IPv6 multicast framework solution (AUS) and (3) provide the evaluation and deployment of the AUS framework in CERNET2. Given the deployment of this scalable multicast framework, we believe that our solution offer the advantages of both a bandwidth-saving delivery network and strong controllability.
