Abstract

See full text

According to an example, in a method for multicasting a data message by an apparatus in a multi-site network (MSN), a multicast data message that is to be communicated to another apparatus over the MSN network may be received, in which the apparatus includes a MSN-link port through which data messages are to be communicated to the another apparatus. In addition, a determination may be made that the received multicast data message is to be communicated to the another apparatus through the MSN-link port. The received multicast data message may be replicated and the replicated multicast data message may be encapsulated into a MSN message. Moreover; the MSN message encapsulating the replicated multicast data message may be tunneled to the another apparatus over the MSN-link port.
