A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 4410 Title: Selectively Reliable Multicast Protocol (SRMP) Author: M. Pullen, F. Zhao, D. Cohen Status: Experimental Date: February 2006 Mailbox: mpullen at gmu.edu, fzhao at netlab.gmu.edu, danny.cohen at sun.com Pages: 30 Characters: 65877 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-pullen-srmp-06.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4410.txt The Selectively Reliable Multicast Protocol (SRMP) is a transport protocol, intended to deliver a mix of reliable and best-effort messages in an any-to-any multicast environment, where the best-effort traffic occurs in significantly greater volume than the reliable traffic and therefore can carry sequence numbers of reliable messages for loss detection. SRMP is intended for use in a distributed simulation application environment, where only the latest value of reliable transmission for any particular data identifier requires delivery. SRMP has two sublayers: a bundling sublayer handling message aggregation and congestion control, and a Selectively Reliable Transport (SRT) sublayer. Selection between reliable and best-effort messages is performed by the application. This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community.
