A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Multicast & Anycast Group Membership Working Group of the IETF.
Title : IGMP and MLD snooping switches
Author(s) : M. Christensen, F. Solensky
Filename : draft-ietf-magma-snoop-02.txt
Pages : 11
Date : 03-Jul-02
This memo describes the requirements for IGMP and MLD snooping
switches. The requirements for IGMPv2 snooping switches are based
on best current practices. IGMPv3 and MLDv2 snooping are also cov�
ered in this draft although we are not aware of any such implemen�
tations at the time of writing. Areas which are of relevance to
IGMP and MLD snooping switches, such as link layer topology changes
and Ethernet specific encapsulation issues are also considered.
Interoperability issues that arise betweed different versions of
IGMP are not discussed in this document. Interested readers are
directed to [IGMPv3] for a thorough description of problem area.
This document is intended as an accompanying document to the IGMPv3
and MLDv2 specifications.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
