The IESG has received a request from the MBONE Deployment WG (mboned) to consider the following document: - 'Multicast Ping Protocol' <draft-ietf-mboned-ssmping-08.txt> as a Proposed Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2011-07-04. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract The Multicast Ping Protocol specified in this document allows for checking whether an endpoint can receive multicast, both Source- Specific Multicast (SSM) and Any-Source Multicast (ASM). It can also be used to obtain additional multicast-related information such as multicast tree setup time. This protocol is based on an implementation of tools called ssmping and asmping. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-mboned-ssmping/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-mboned-ssmping/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
