Re: [magma] Destination address in v2 leave message

[Bharat Joshi <[e-mail]>]

Hi Kunal/Indranil,

         Leave message is sent to ALL-Routers address because host does not keep track of the querier.

         If host needs to keep track of querier, it will have to implement querier election algorithm and maintain a state with querier-timeout etc. which is unnecessary.

Regards,
Bharat

Hi Kunal,

            Non-queriers lower the group timers upon receiving group-specific query from querier. They always ignore leave messages. Please refer the last state diagram in section 7 which is for non-querier.

Thanks,
Indranil

Non-querier does process the leave message. On receiving a leave the non-querier is going to reduce the group timer to [Max Response Time] in the packet * [Last Member Query Count] but will not send the leave. Please refer to section 7 of RFC 2236.

Hi,

    Can anyone please tell me the disadvantage of using queriers address as destination address in v2 leave message? Is there any advantage of sending it to 224.0.0.2? Non-querier never processes leave message anyway.

Thanks,
Indranil
