Information Technology - Enhanced Communications Transport Protocol: Specification of Simplex Multicast Transport
Scope:
This Recommendation
International Standard specifies the Enhanced Communications Transport Protocol (ECTP), which is a transport protocol designed to support Internet multicast applications over multicast-capable IP networks. This Recommendation
International Standard specifies the ECTP for the simplex multicast transport connection that consists of one sender and many receivers.
This Recommendation
International Standard specifies the protocol procedures for the following protocol operations: a) connection creation with tree creation; b) multicast data transmission; c) tree-based reliability control with error detection, retransmission request and retransmission; d) late join and leave; e) tree membership maintenance; and f) connection termination
