Subpackage Descriptions
| single |
This a port of NACK-Oriented Reliable Multicast (N.O.R.M.), as specified
in RFC5740.
The NORM protocol is designed to provide end-to-end reliable transport of
bulk data objects or streams over generic IP multicast routing and
forwarding services. NORM uses a selective, negative acknowledgement
(NACK) mechanism for transport reliability and offers additional protocol
mechanisms to conduct reliable multicast sessions with limited "a priori"
coordination among senders and receivers. A congestion control scheme is
specified to allow the NORM protocol fairly share available network
bandwidth with other transport protocols such as Transmission Control
Protocol (TCP). It is capable of operating with both reciprocal multicast
routing among senders and receivers and with asymmetric connectivity
(possibly a unicast return path) from the senders to receivers. The
protocol offers a number of features to allow different types of
applications or possibly other higher level transport protocols to utilize
its service in different ways. The protocol leverages the use of FEC-based
repair and other IETF reliable multicast transport (RMT) building blocks
in its design.
