Abstract:
A method, apparatus and computer program product for performing multicast Backbone Media Access Channel (BMAC) header transformations is presented. A packet having a header is received at a network node. The header is modified to produce a packet having a modified header by replacing an original value inside the header with a less granular value. The packet having a modified header is forwarded into a transport network.
