Abstract

See full text

Methods and apparatus for multicast connection admission control are disclosed. In one aspect a method includes measuring, at a forwarding plane of a telecommunications device, an actual amount of multicast bandwidth being used to deliver multicast data to multiple end user devices over a telecommunications link; controlling, by the telecommunications device, membership to the multicast table based on the measured amount of multicast bandwidth being used independent of the amount of bandwidth or type of bandwidth used by any individual member of the multicast table and a threshold amount of bandwidth, and transmitting, by the telecommunications device, the multicast data to user devices that have requested the multicast data corresponding to a member of the multicast table.
