Abstract:
In previous works, a multi-objective traffic engineering scheme (MHDB-S model) using different distribution trees to multicast several flows
were proposed. Because the flow assignment cannot be mapped directly into MPLS architecture, in this paper, we propose a linear system equation to create multiple point-2-multipoint LSPs based on the optimum sub-flow values obtained with our MHDB-S model.

Keywords: Multiobjective Optimization, Multicast, MPLS, Sub-flow assignment
