Protocol Overview Building Multicast Listening State on Multicast Address Listeners Exchanging Messages between the Querier and the Listening Nodes Building Multicast Address Listener State on Multicast Routers |
The Service Interface for Requesting IP Multicast Reception |
Multicast Listening State Maintained by Nodes Per-Socket State Per-Interface State |
Message Formats Multicast Listener Query Message – Code – Checksum – Maximum Response Code – Reserved – Multicast Address – S Flag (Suppress Router-Side Processing) – QRV (Querier’s Robustness Variable) – QQIC (Querier’s Query Interval Code) – Number of Sources (N) – Source Address [i] – Additional Data – Query Variants – Source Addresses for Queries – Destination Addresses for Queries Version 2 Multicast Listener Report Message |
