According to certain embodiments, a router comprises one or more processors and one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media. The one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media comprise instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause one or more components of the router to perform operations comprising determining an occurrence of one or more network events associated with a multicast service, generating route exchange information associated with the multicast service locally by the router based on the one or more network events, and using the route exchange information locally to configure the router.
