#128: Trickle multicast could be considered in other applications?


Comment (by mcr@sandelman.ca):

 > can MPL operate in a mixed environment where not all routers are MPL
 capable?

 I think that MPL can not operate in a mixed environment.
 An MPL aware router could route between MPL and traditional multicast
 routing protocols, and this could occur even if the router was one-armed.

 > do the hosts need to be in any way aware that their mcast is supported
 by MPL?

 I believe that non-MPL aware hosts will not be listening to the right
 subnet-local mcast groups,
 and so they will not see the MPL.  MPL and non-MPL multicast will be ships
 in the night.
