Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method by a router in a multicast network for multicast mtrace extension to trace one or more any-source multicast (ASM) sources includes transmitting a mtrace (*,G) route to a last hop router, receiving an active source list, and creating a mtrace (S,G) route for a rendezvous point (RP) to initiate based on the received active source list.
