Abstract:
   The BIER WG includes, in its charter, work on developing mechanisms
   to transport BIER natively in IPv6.  This document is intended to
   help the WG with this effort by specifying requirements for
   transporting packets, with Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER)
   headers, in an IPv6 environment.  There will be a need to send IPv6
   payloads, to multiple IPv6 destinations, using BIER.  There have been
   several proposed solutions in this area.  But there hasn't been a
   document which describes the problem and lists the requirements.  The
   goal of this document is to describe the BIER IPv6 requirements,
   summarize the proposed solutions, and guide the working group in
   understanding the benefits, and drawbacks, of the various solutions
   and to help in the development of acceptable solutions.
