  "abstract": "RFC 6513 (\"Multicast in MPLS/BGP IP VPNs\") describes a method to support bidirectional customer multicast flows using a partial mesh of Multipoint-to-Multipoint (MP2MP) tunnels.  This document specifies how a partial mesh of MP2MP tunnels can be simulated using Ingress Replication.  This solution enables a service provider to use Ingress Replication to offer transparent bidirectional multicast service to its VPN customers.",
