Multicast Server Architectures for MARS-based Multicasting
Authors:
This page documents the work being done towards designing a Multicast Server
Architecture. It also includes references to related work in the MARS
architecture for IP Multicast over ATM networks.
Multicast Server (MCS) code:
Code for MCS conforming to RFC 2149.
Presentations:
- Slides from presentation made to IP+ATM workshop, St. Louis,
Missouri, November 1996.
- Slides from presentation made to the ION working group
meeting at the Montreal IETF, June 1996.
- Slides from presentation made to the IPATM working group
meeting at the Los Angeles IETF, March 1996.
