  "abstract": "The MEF Forum (MEF) has defined a rooted-multipoint Ethernet service known as Ethernet-Tree (E-Tree). A solution framework for supporting this service in MPLS networks is described in RFC 7387, \"A Framework for Ethernet-Tree (E-Tree) Service over a Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Network\". This document discusses how those functional requirements can be met with a solution based on RFC 7432, \"BGP MPLS Based Ethernet VPN (EVPN)\", with some extensions and a description of how such a solution can offer a more efficient implementation of these functions than that of RFC 7796, \"Ethernet-Tree (E-Tree) Support in Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS)\". This document makes use of the most significant bit of the Tunnel Type field (in the P-Multicast Service Interface (PMSI) Tunnel attribute) governed by the IANA registry created by RFC 7385; hence, it updates RFC 7385 accordingly.",
