[AG-TECH] USM/MSU Multicast Setup

[David Sliman]

If you would please check the Abilene Core for 131.95.1.25, remote AS 16430.  I
am hoping that router is configured correctly, but I still see all NA on the
beacon web page.

The problem I am having with the below router is it is running IOS 12.0(14)
Enterprise and I cannot put the nlri statements in the bgp section.  They seem
not to be there in this version of the IOS.
