[pim] PIM BSR semantic fragementation.

["Gan" <sindu_m at rediffmail.com>]

Hi,

I have couple of questions regarding BSR semantic fragmentation.

1. Suppose if the BSR packet is divided into 5 fragments and sent, how does the receiving router know that the end of the packet is reached. Is there any field in the BSR fragment which states the end of fragment is received.

2. And once the BSR is received, what is the receiving router supposed to do. Should it wait till all the fragements are recieved and then it should multicast the bootstrap message. or it can just keep mcasting the fragements as and when they are received.

3. Do any of you have issues with respect to implementing the BSR semantic fragementation.

Regards,
-G
