Abstract

This document describes the Killer Reservation Problem encountered when merging RSVP reservation requests. These requests get merged as they travel up the multicast distribution tree, losing information about individual requests. A request, which would have succeeded on its own, may suffer denial of service when the 'merged request' fails admission control. This is the problem for which we present different solutions.
