Title : Reliable Multicast Transport Building Block: Tree Auto-Configuration
Author(s) : S. Koh
Filename : draft-sjkoh-rmt-bb-tree-config-03.txt
Pages : 29
Date : 2004-1-7
The Reliable Multicast Transport (RMT) Working Group has been
chartered to standardize reliable multicast transport services and
protocol instantiations, which include the tree-based ACK (TRACK)
protocol. This document is concerned with defining the building
block for auto-configuration of the logical ACK-tree. According to
the charter, a building block is 'a coarse-grained modular
component that is common to multiple protocols along with abstract
APIs that define a building block's access methods and their
arguments.' The TRACK BB mechanisms [5] will operate on the logical
ACK-tree that is configured by this TREE BB in the TRACK PI
sessions. This document is made based on the guidelines for the RMT
BB [2] and the recommendations for TREE BB [4].

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
