> Creation date:  2011-10-15
> WG ID:   Individual Submission
> Number of pages: 13
> 
> Abstract:
>    On a multi-access network such as an Ethernet, one of the PIM routers
>    is elected as a Designated Routers (DR).  The PIM DR has two roles in
>    the PIM protocol.  On the first hop network, the PIM DR is
>    responsible for registering an active source to the RP if the group
>    is operated in PIM SM.  On the last hop network, the PIM DR is
>    responsible for tracking local multicast listeners and forwarding
>    traffic to these listeners if the group is operated in PIM SM/SSM/DM.
>    In this document, we propose a modification to the PIM protocol that
>    allows multiple of these last hop routers to be selected so that the
>    forwarding load can be distributed to and handled among these
>    routers.  A router responsible for forwarding for a particular group
>    is called a Group Designated Router (GDR).
