This paper defines first the multicast traffic engineering and studies after its particularity comparing to unicast traffic engineering. This paper studies merging multicast and MPLS. The paper presents a taxonomy of different MPLS proposals for multicast TE. The paper describes briefly the approach, the MPLS multicast tree (MMT) protocol which utilizes, in order to reduce forwarding states and enhance scalability, MPLS LSPs between branching node routers of a multicast tree. This paper discusses also implementing a simulator for MMT and finally it presents some simulation results.
