A method for Generic Framing Procedure (GFP) encapsulation includes: cascading a plurality of protocol data units to form a cascaded packet; and encapsulating the cascaded packet to obtain a GFP frame. A device for GFP encapsulation includes a cascading module, for cascading a plurality of protocol data units to form a cascade packet, and a GFP encapsulation module, for encapsulating the cascade packet to obtain a GFP frame. According to the method and the device, the occupation rate of the payload in a single GFP frame is increased and thus transmission efficiency is improved.

A method for implementing multicast based on a Multi-Service Transport Platform (MSTP), by establishing a Label Switch Path (LSP) multicast tree branch from a source network node based on the MSTP to multiple destination network nodes. According to the LSP multicast tree branch, data packets can be transmitted in multicast manner from the source network node to multiple destination network nodes, so that the procedure of network node's transmitting the data packets to multiple parts is simplified. In the present invention embodiment, LSP is utilized and multiple protocols label switch is supported, so that service protection function, flow management and flow engineering can be implemented and good QoS guarantee can be provided, which is suitable for large-scale network construction; while the multicast method is simplified and effective, operational and controllable management upon communication networks can be implemented to provide reliable QoS guarantee for network terminals.
