Application in video broadcast

The following figure shows the use of the SR product family in triple play application (TPSDA). 7210 SAS devices could be attached to the BSA device as part of the access network.

Figure: Application of P2MP LSP in video broadcast

A PIM-free core network can be achieved by deploying P2MP LSPs using other core routers. The router can act as the ingress LER receiving the multicast packets from the multicast source and forwarding them over the P2MP LSP.A router can act as a leaf for the P2MP LSP tree initiated from the head-end router co-located with the video source. The router can also act as a branch node serving other leaf nodes and supports the replication of multicast packets over P2MP LSPs.
