The Map-Server sends Map-Notify messages to the ETR and the ETR responds with Map-Notify-Ack messages. > For map-register we periodically send again, so packet loss of > map-registers is not a big problem. What is your idea for map-notifies? > Some of the notifications may be singular events. Other of course could > be periodic (e.g. merge notification triggered by the map-registers?). These are not perioidic, because only when there are locator-set changes, the Map-Notify messages are sent by Map-Servers. > Would I need an ACK for the map-notification (and some fast-timer > re-send, e.g. every 1sec until ACKed) ? That would take state/timer, > although only until's it's ACKnowledged. Yes, they are called Map-Notify-Ack messages. They contain the same contents as the Map-Notify but just with a different type value.
