Hi Jeffrey,

I’m proposing to remove this section of the draft:

***
The payload after BIER header is IPv4 or IPv6 (i.e., the Proto
field in the BIER header is 4 or 6).
Notice that in this case the Destination Address in the IPv4/IPv6
header must be in the address space for the BIER layer.
***

If that is your thinking too, we are in sync.


Thx,

Ice.

If we're just transitioning an existing PIM deployment to using BIER, then there is no explicit set of edge routers (the premise of PHP is really that some edge routers, like VPN/EVPN PEs, cannot be upgraded to support BIER forwarding) - we can just run PIM if a router does not support BIER yet.
