DOCSIS3.0 组播转发机制要点分析眩晕的猫 2013081、Docsis3.0 MDF设计核心思想：Removing the IGMP control plane from the CM offers wide range of benefits as follows: ? Ensures well defined and consistent multicast forwarding behavior in the CM.? Simplifies the CM since protocol specific knowledge for technologies such as ASM and SSM for IPv4 and IPv6, including the protocols IGMPv3 and MLDv2, is no longer required . ? Easier to incorporate multicast protocol changes since they only affect the CMTS and not the CMs . ? Other multicast protocols like PIM can be su pported in the future by utilizing the same CMTS to CM signaling without affecting the CMs. ? It is easier to solve issues related to MAC level aliasing, access and admission control from the CMTS. 2.MDF高层功能 2.1 CMTS用DSID标识组播报文 a.CM通告CMTS加入组播组时会携带接口信息，CMTS在通告CM DSID组播转发绑定关系时会携带CM端口信息下来。 b.非知名IPv6组播节目: 不同的SSM(S,G)或ASM(*,G)在1个MACDomain要分配不同的DSID. Packets with a known DSID are received by the CM and forwarded to the set of interfaces associated with the DSID. A routing CMTS MUST label traffic for different IP multicast SSM Channels or IP multicast ASM Groups with different DSIDs, with the exception of well - known IPv6 multicast traffic (refer to Annex A.1.2). Thus, with Multicast DSID -based Forwarding, each replication of an (S,G) IP multicast session to a particular DCS is assigned a unique DSID label within a MAC Domain. A bridging CMTS SHOULD支持区分SSM(S,G)的能力，如果不具备至少要能为不同的Group Address分配不同的DSID. c.为了使用2.0/3.0 CM混合场景，通过1个组播流会分配多个DSID。参见Figure9-3的场景。 1）在此场景下bonding CM也只能从1条DC上接受组播节目。 2）1个组播流在同一个channel内分发多次。1个DSID是给nonbonding CM用的，另1个DSID是给bonding CM用的。 这个应用下有一个问题，即2.0 CM也会受到bonding DSID的同一个组播流的部分流量，但2.0的CM是不看DSID的，怎么办？ answer: Isolation Packet PDU MAC Header The CMTS MUST isolate bonded multicast traffic from non-bonded replication on the same downstream channel by transmitting these bonded multicast packets with the Isolation Packet PDU MAC Header (the FC_Type field of the DOCSIS frame set to binary 10). Because the CMTS does
