G04-IP: Yes

Rationale

BGP control is distributed among ASes and speakers; additional regions can use additional speakers rather than one mandatory global coordinator. Multiple route-reflector clusters can distribute client work, with redundant reflectors. PIM-SM group-to-RP mapping allows separate groups to use different RPs. This is distribution of work, not removal of replicated routing tables or unlimited scaling of one group.

Assessment method

Documentary analysis; no protocol execution

Source context

Primary specification / explicit selected policy

Outstanding qualification

Specify AS/cluster/group placement and measure per-speaker state, update work and convergence. A full table can remain replicated; G01 stays No and G05 stays pending.
