Why UDP ? The generic feature for raw data transmission minimizes its side effects on protocols shipped over it: avoided any kind of CC over CC, like TCPoverTCP Efficiently meet the requirements for redirect message multicast multicast for CE->FE redirected data will be a very common case for use, e.g.: for routing protocol messages for multicast protocol messages Efficiently meet the requirements for heartbeat broadcast just consider hundreds of FEs connected to a CE Well-known and widely deployed This is so important a point that it may affect deployment of ForCES greatly. |
