I would not oppose existing mechanisms, which I do not believe is impossible to use in your scenerio. What you really don't get is that packet drops and event losses are absolutely fundamental. As long as receivers lack infinite receive queue this will always be the case. Multicast operates in non-reliable transports only so that one stuck or malfunctioning receiver doesn't screw things over for everyone nor unduly brudon the sender. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
