Re: [pim] Simple join failure notification for PIM-SM multicast routing

[Jerome Durand <jdurand at renater.fr>]

Hi!

I read your doc, nice contribution indeed. IMHO, we should move forward 
this proposal quickly. We agreed in Dallas to have monitoring/management 
included in MBoned charter and your doc comes at the perfect time.

Thanks

Jerome

> notification message based on ICMP/ICMP6 which is able to indicate
> where and why the error happened in the network without using a
> multicast traceroute mechanism."
