Abstract:
Multicast traffic in a communication network may be obtained via subscription. For example, the multicast traffic may be obtained via a local subscription, via a visited domain of a mobile node for example, or a remote subscription, via a home domain of a mobile node for example, A network entity, such as a Mobile Access Gateway (MAG) and/or a local multicast router for example, may be used to manage the routing of the multicast traffic to the mobile node. The network entity may manage the multicast traffic using one or more multicast policies that may indicate how to route the multicast traffic to a mobile node.
