Multicast traffic aggregation forwarding method and related equipment

The invention provides a multicast traffic aggregation forwarding method, which is applied to routing equipment, and comprises the following steps: generating a bit index forwarding table BIFT according to user joining information; obtaining a next hop address of each user according to the user joining information and the BIFT; for multicast data with the same address in the next hop, packaging a message header Bier6Header of first IPv6 bit index display copy and an extension header, and reserving a Rev field for setting; and carrying out aggregation forwarding on the multicast streams with the same next hop address. According to the method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the multicast service flow forwarding performance of the Bier6 under the multi-SI condition is improved, the multicast data flow can be aggregated and forwarded under the condition that the next hops of the BIFT are the same, and the network bearing efficiency is improved. 本公开提供了一种组播流量聚合转发方法，应用于路由设备，该方法包括：根据用户加入信息生成位索引转发表BIFT；根据
