Abstract:
   Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER) can be used as provider tunnel
   for Multicast Virtual Private Network (MVPN).  Global Table Multicast
   [RFC7716] 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.
