Abstract:
A network device may transmit, to a first neighbor network device, information indicating that the network device supports bit indexed explicit replication (BIER), where the network device does not support BIER. The network device may receive, from the first neighbor network device, a multicast packet that includes a first BIER label associated with the network device. The network device may replace the first BIER label with a second BIER label associated with a second neighbor network device, and may transmit the multicast packet to the second neighbor network device. The second neighbor network device may be to tunnel the multicast packet to a third neighbor network device that supports BIER.

Claim (Index 5):
The network device of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors, when transmitting the multicast packet to the second neighbor network device, are to:\n transmit the multicast packet to the second neighbor network device to further cause the second neighbor device to be provisioned with information indicating that the network device does not support BIER.
