Configuring IP Multicasting Services
5-4 114064 Rev. A
An ST2 agent that receives control messages and stream data directly from an
origin application or delivers control messages and stream data to a target
application is considered to be a host agent. ST2 agents that forward control
messages and data to the next agent downstream are considered to be intermediate
agents. A Bay Networks router can be configured as an intermediate ST2 agent.
The ST2 environment in
Figure 5-1 includes three Bay Networks routers
(BayNet/ST2 1, BayNet/ST2 2, and BayNet/ST2 3).
Stream Control Messages
ST2 agents communicate with each other by exchanging messages defined by the
Stream Control Message Protocol (SCMP).
For example, an origin that wants to establish a stream sends an SCMP connect
message to the next-hop IP router downstream. The connection request includes
A list of one or more targets.
A hop identifier (HID). An HID is suggested by the upstream agent. The
downstream agent may accept the HID or propose an alternative HID.
A flowspec listing the network resources required for the stream.
To accept a connection request from an upstream agent, the agent returns an
SCMP ACCEPT message.
In “ST2 Features” on page 5-6,
Table 5-1 lists all the SCMP messages currently
supported by the Bay Networks implementation of ST2.
Neighbors and Tunnels
An ST2 agent exchanges SCMP messages with next-hop agents. In an ST2
environment, next-hop agents are considered to be neighbors.
Neighbors can be connected in two ways -- directly or through an ST2 tunnel. In
Figure 5-2 the ST2 agent on Router A has two neighbors, the agent on Router B
and the agent on Router D. Router A and Router B are connected directly -- they
both have an interface to Network 1. Router A and Router D are connected
through a tunnel that includes Network 2 and Network 3 and a router that does not
have ST2 capabilities, Router C.
