An efficient mechanism for multicast deployment in IPv6

IPv6 multicast technology will be more and more important technology for various internet applications in the future. In order to deploy IPv6 multicast, several technical methods and protocols are needed. Generally inter-domain IPv6 multicast service can be deployed using two different architectures: either ASM with embedded-RP, or SSM. In ASM Embedded-RP is proposed to solve the several problems, but this method is a solutions quite new, and it's not clear yet how the service best can be provided. And there are also issues regarding SSM. In the IETF multicast deployment working group (mboned) is largely agreed on SSM as the way forward. In this paper, we describe technical issues and considerations to deploy IPv6 multicast.
