An Extension to the REsource LOcation And Discovery (RELOAD) Protocol
to Support Relay Peer Routing
Abstract
This document defines an optional extension to the REsource LOcation
And Discovery (RELOAD) protocol to support the relay peer routing
mode. RELOAD recommends symmetric recursive routing for routing
messages. The new optional extension provides a shorter route for
responses, thereby reducing overhead on intermediate peers. This
document also describes potential cases where this extension can be
used.
