Abstract:
   Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER) can be used as provider tunnel
   for Multicast Virtual Private Network (MVPN) [RFC6514], Global
   Table Multicast [RFC7716] or Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN)
   [RFC7432].  It is possible that not all routers in the provider
   network support BIER and there are various methods to handle BIER
   incapable transit routers.  However those methods assume the MVPN/
   EVPN Provider Edges (PEs) are BIER capable.  This document specifies
   a method to allow BIER incapable routers to act as MVPN/EVPN PEs with
   BIER as the transport, by having the upstream BIER Forwarding Router
   (BFR) that is connected directly or indirectly via a tunnel to a BIER
   incapable PE remove the BIER header and send the payload to the PE.
