Description : Implementation of the Pragmatic General Multicast protocol
OpenPGM is an open source implementation of the Pragmatic General
Multicast (PGM) specification in RFC 3208 available at www.ietf.org. PGM
is a reliable and scalable multicast protocol that enables receivers to
detect loss, request retransmission of lost data, or notify an
application of unrecoverable loss. PGM is a receiver-reliable protocol,
which means the receiver is responsible for ensuring all data is
received, absolving the sender of reception responsibility. PGM runs
over a best effort datagram service, currently OpenPGM uses IP multicast
but could be implemented above switched fabrics such as InfiniBand.
PGM is appropriate for applications that require duplicate-free
multicast data delivery from multiple sources to multiple receivers. PGM
does not support acknowledged delivery, nor does it guarantee ordering
of packets from multiple senders.
