This document presents a set of functional requirements for
network
solutions that allow the deployment of IP multicast within
Layer 3
(L3) Provider-Provisioned Virtual Private Networks (PPVPNs).
 It
specifies requirements both from the end user and service
provider
standpoints.  It is intended that potential solutions
specifying the
support of IP multicast within such VPNs will use these
requirements
as guidelines.  This memo provides information for the
Internet community.

This document is a product of the Layer 3 Virtual Private
Networks
Working Group of the IETF.
