Project overview
- Project:Multicast IPv6 traffic support
- Student: Krishna Teja Yadavalli
- Mentors: Tommaso Pecorella,Tom Henderson
- Abstract: As of now NS-3 is not supporting MLDv2 or PIM-SM. As a result of this we are setting up the routes manually. In real life nodes join and leave different multicast groups quite frequently and they also mention the sources in which they are interested in. By using this information there is lot of scope for optimization of the multicast traffic. The goal of this project is to make NS-3 support to Multicast more realistic by implementing MLDv2 protocol.
- Future Plans:Implementing Multicast Routing protocols like PIM-SM ,PIM-DM which would create a solid Multicasting platform to develop and test ideas in IPV6 Multicast domain.
- Code:
- About me: I am currently an undergraduate student in Computer Science at International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad. My research area is in improving the efficiency of Multicast.
Approach
Project will be done incrementally. Initial plan is to implement all kinds of packets Report,Query and then integrating them to complete MLDV2 protocol.
Deliverables
- A platform to develop Multicast routing protocols.
- Documentation describing MLDv2 protocol and this platform.
- Example scripts which will demonstrate the usage of MLDv2.
- Test cases for above implementations.
