A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Protocol Independent Multicast Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Bootstrap Router (BSR) Mechanism for PIM
Author(s) : B. Fenner, et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-pim-sm-bsr-05.txt
Pages : 39
Date : 2005-2-18
This document specifies the Bootstrap Router (BSR) mechanism
for the class of multicast routing protocols in the PIM
(Protocol Independent Multicast protocol) family that use the
concept of a Rendezvous Point as a means for receivers to
discover the sources that send to a particular multicast
group. BSR is one way that a multicast router can learn the
set of group-to-RP mappings required in order to function.
The mechanism is dynamic, largely self-configuring, and robust
to router failure.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-pim-sm-bsr-05.txt".
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
Internet-Draft.
