Ballot Text

Technical Summary
 
The definitions of IGMPv3 and MLDv2 require new behavior within the 
multicast routing protocols.  The additional source information 
contained in IGMPv3 and MLDv2 messages necessitates multicast 
routing protocols to manage and utilize the information.  This 
document describes how multicast routing protocols will interact 
with these source-filtering group management protocols. 
 
Working Group Summary
 
This document was produced by the MAGMA WG, and was updated to
address AD comments from Erik Nordmark.
