The IESG has received a request from the Protocol Independent Multicast WG (pim) to consider the following document: - 'A Reliable Transport Mechanism for PIM' <draft-ietf-pim-port-08.txt> as an Experimental RFC The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2011-10-10. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document defines a reliable transport mechanism for the PIM protocol for transmission of Join/Prune messages. This eliminates the need for periodic Join/Prune message transmission and processing. The reliable transport mechanism can use either TCP or SCTP as the transport protocol. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pim-port/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pim-port/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
