Abstract:
   Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER) can be used as provider tunnel
   for Multicast Virtual Private Network (MVPN), Global Table Multicast
   or Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN).  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.
