Abstract
Provided are a multicast traffic transmission method and apparatus, a communication node and a storage medium. The multicast traffic transmission method includes the following. A first forwarding entry is determined, where the first forwarding entry includes Bit Indexed Explicit Replication (BIER) information of an Autonomous System Border Router (ASBR); multicast traffic is acquired; and the multicast traffic is encapsulated based on the first forwarding entry, and a BIER packet is determined and transmitted.
Claims27
A multicast traffic transmission method, applied to a first communication node, comprising:
- determining a first forwarding entry, wherein the first forwarding entry comprises bit indexed explicit replication (BIER) information of an autonomous system border router (ASBR);
- acquiring multicast traffic;
- and
- encapsulating the multicast traffic based on the first forwarding entry, and determining and transmitting a BIER packet.
(canceled)
A multicast traffic transmission method, applied to a second communication node, comprising:
- sending bit indexed explicit replication (BIER) information of an autonomous system border router (ASBR) to a first communication node;
- acquiring a BIER packet sent by the first communication node, wherein the BIER packet is determined based on a first forwarding entry, and the first forwarding entry is determined based on the BIER information of the ASBR sent to the first communication node;
- and
- transmitting the BIER packet based on switching information of a BIER forwarding plane of the second communication node and a second forwarding entry.

A multicast traffic transmission method, applied to a third communication node, comprising:
- sending bit indexed explicit replication (BIER) information of an autonomous system border router (ASBR) to a second communication node;
- acquiring a BIER packet of the second communication node, wherein the BIER packet is transmitted by the second communication node based on switching information of a BIER forwarding plane and a second forwarding entry;
- and
- transmitting the BIER packet according to a second association relationship;
- wherein the BIER information of the ASBR comprises BIER information of the third communication node.
